Last month I started the process of updating my website, adding new photos to various portfolios etc. The year before I had created new pages so those had sparse photographs on them or offerings and I really wanted to have more content.
The problem with being a photographer sometimes is an overabundance of content. See I have thousands and thousands of images and take more and more every year. Updating my website is honestly time consuming because the photographs are large, take forever to upload and on a good day that’s if I can find the ones I want to add.
Now I keep all my photographs in labeled folders, which are kept in dated folders, and arranged by year. It shouldn’t be hard to find things, but I have a tendency to forget what I named shoot folders which makes it hard to find specific images, worst still if it was a graphic project because it would be the project name and sometimes I apparently name them by color?? Weird.
My files also backdate to roughly 2011, though some things have unfortunately (or fortunately?) been lost to file corruption and time. That problem lead to wanting prints of images, which lead to photo-books, which was a project which had me moving images around and thus another sub-category was created.
Long story short in website updating I just can not share all my work no matter how much I wish I could, sometimes it takes me way longer than it should to get new content to portfolio pages because I have so much other stuff going on. Even with the shut down last year I found away to keep semi productive after the moping period over business loss. This year I wanted to start out strong with a lot more blogging, as well as getting the website in peak shape.
