Blogsite or website?

  • poll: Do you think a photographer should have a portfolio website in addition to a blog?
    Yes, of course. I would never consider one without a real portfolio site. : (0 votes)
    It doesn't matter if there's no real portfolio site if I already know/heard about the photographer. : (0 votes)
    No portfolio site? Is he/she a real photographer? : (1 votes)

    I am wondering during your search of a photographer, do you go through his/her blog or are you mostly drawn to their portfolio site? -- in other words, do you look down upon a photographer if they didn't have a real website?  I know the most famous in the industry (Jessica Claire, Susan Stripling, etc) are all going for blogsites now, but they already have their names established.

    When I did my wedding research, I almost always jump straight to a photographer's blog. If there isn't one, then he/she's immediately out, is it the case with you gals too?

    Thanks! Love to hear what you think!

    i go straight for a blog because it shows what people are really like, their personality etc.  and it shows recent pictures.  sometimes folks don't have time to update their websites and i honestly want to see what you did yesterday not what you did ten years ago.

    I liked looking at blogs too.  My photographer put one up after we had our engagement pictures done and I love checking it out still!  Shows me what he is taking pictures of now.
