I do some photography as an enthusiast, and while I'm not really looking to go professional, I figured it was time I got a proper portfolio site instead of just relying on my Flickr account. As a parallel to this, I've long wished there were a really simple, beautifully-designed, open-source portfolio system that I could quickly set up for my artist friends to show off their work.

So, I had an idea for such a portfolio. I had put the design together for this a few weeks ago, but this weekend, I sat down and started coding, and, even on a busy Easter weekend with family, I managed to get the site done by Sunday night just working on it here and there:

So, this is my photography portfolio, and the testbed for what I think I may call ProcessFolio, "a gorgeous, minimalist, open-source web portfolio for artists built on ProcessWire." If I can be allowed to call my own work gorgeous for marketing purposes.

Very cool photos, statestreet. Really like "Play Dead" and "Damen". Site looks nice and clean and I like it. The only thing that bothers me is a "nervous" sidebar

[statestreet]

Thanks! Heh, I've never heard of that being called a "nervous" rollover before. I like this one because it gives the user a cue as to what will happen if they click. I wonder if maybe it shouldn't nudge as far when rolled over, though.

Statestreet, it would be great to have a button to switch this rollover on and off, but maybe it's not what you had in mind)
