Photography can be a very powerful aspect of you’re design should you choose to inlcude it. A lot of times it can give a strong sense of place, and just add to the overall wow factor of a design. All these sites use photography well and in unique ways.

cresk studios

Here the photograph is the main aspect of the site, and the desinger uses the strong blues and golds in the picture to emphasize the freshness of their company.

The Paper Palate

You might’ve seen this site elsewhere as it’s fast becoming popular among web designs. It’s simplicty is at the core of it’s appeal, but it must be said that simply photographing thing close up doesn’t necessarily make them look good to eat. The genius here is that the food looks as good as the site design, or vise-versa.

Fairplay Golf Hotel & Spa

Here the designers use a curve similar to the “f” in fairplay to frame a series of beautiful images of the hotel. The relatively small photos invite you further into the site.

At Home. Inc.

Here the site wraps itself around a striking nightime photograph of a lovely house. The photo itself provides enough depth and color for the rest of the site lean on, resulting in a super simplistic interface.

Rinaldi Cozinhas

A lot of business sites choose to showcase their products with photos. Rinaldi, however, not only lets you see the products, but uses the photographs to show you how superior their products are.

The Swell Guys

Simply put: great surfing photos and it belnds well with the rest of the site.
