Topic: New Site - I Need Your Ideas/Suggestions!

Hi guys,

I have been approached to design a new website for an established music photographer. I havent even started working on it yet and already Im stuck lol.

She needs "one that will be super easy to get around and allows folks to order prints - purchase use for editorial."

She attends gigs every day as a press photographer and as a result needs the site to be updated daily. I am doing this a favour for her; in exchange for rights to the use of her catalog of photos - therefore I would rather she updates the site herself as I dont want 100 photos in my inbox everyday.

I need to know, is their any CMS / Blogger out their that will suit our needs? I need it to be as simple as possible for her to update. If she isnt a whizkid on computers I cant ask her to hack away at the HTML code everyday lol.

Any ideas or suggestions that might suit our needs will be looked into. Thanks,
Will

Hi,

Gallery 2 already has hooks in it for ordering prints, it's the best gallery out there:

For a real simple gallery, take a look at plogger:

As for the CMS, it's just a matter of styling the gallery to look like the front end.
