2010 PDN Photo Annual
Posted by John Keatley | Filed under Awards
Wow, how exciting! My website, www.keatleyphoto.com was just published in this years PDN Photo Annual as one of the top photography websites. In addition to the magazine, all of the contest winners and judges can be seen in an online gallery. When my current website went live last year, I was feeling really good about my chances of getting it into PDN thanks to the excellent work of my graphic designer Greg Lutze. I entered it into the competition, but never heard anything back. When I saw on Twitter the winners were being notified and I didn’t hear anything, I figured I didn’t make the cut and I put it out of my mind.
Last week I was emailing with a friend, and he said, congrats on your site in PDN. I had no idea what he was talking about, but sure enough, my site was selected. I just thought I would share my excitement, and take this opportunity to encourage you to take a peek at one of the best photography websites of year!

New Website
Posted by John Keatley | Filed under News
The time has come. After months of hard work, the new www.keatleyphoto.com is now live. I would like to publicly thank graphic designer Greg Lutze who worked with me on this project. I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with him. Along with designing my website, he also did my new business cards, portfolio, email and postcard promos. I am in New York for a couple of weeks now, and so far the portfolio has been received really well.
There are many things about the new site that I am excited about, but one thing inperticular are the blog links. I really wanted a way to integrate my website and blog together. When you are viewing a large image on my website, that has related content on the blog, a link to that post will show up in the lower right corner of the page.
I would strongly encourage you to take a look at Greg’s work. Especially if you are thinking about branding or having a new site custom designed. I would also like to thank and recommend Online Revolution Design. They did the flash programming and backend to the site. I am really impressed with how fast everything loads, and would love to send them more business. Tell them I sent you.
In other news, I have started a Facebook photography page (here) for all you Facebook users. My plan is to post more casual updates, news items, and snapshots from my photo shoots. I will also post updates when a new blog post comes out. That way you never have to leave Facebook. Except for when you are tweeting of course…
