We learned very early on how important presentation is in our visual business. Poor exposure is the easiest route to disaster. In order to find a solution for a new portfolio website we intensively scoured the web - and stumbled upon FolioLink. The visual impact of the offered design possibilities was a revelation for us and the best part is that we can do it on our own. This was exactly what we were searching for. After the launch of the new website we got thrilling feedback from our clients like “eye-catching”, “very professional”, “highest quality standard”. That speaks for itself.

Heidi and Hans are triggered by the rhythm and soul of living beings. They characterize themselves as lifeform photographers while friends call them the "Duo Bestiale". For two decades their photographs and features have been published worldwide in prestigious top-level media.The couples imagery has been honored multiple times, including by World Press Photo, Art Directors Club of Germany and Europe, Lead Award, BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year Awards, Fuji Euro Award and German Award for Science Photography). You can see the diversity of these awards and merits as a proof of their professional passion.

Having a strong, memorable web presence is critical in today's marketplace; especially in a visual industry such as photography. In addition to great content, potential clients expect sites to be clean, well designed, fast loading and easy to navigate. At the back-end, I need a site that's easy to update and simple to maintain. After using a custom built site for a number of years, I was ready for a new design with less administrative hassle. A friend sent me a link to his site and I was impressed with the simple elegance, clean look and easy functionality. When he told me it was a template, I was a little surprised in that the template providers I was familiar with had an easily identified look that lacked individuality. On the other hand, FolioLink offered a wide variety of designs with options and choices within each one including user changes and customization by FolioLink. Building the site was fairly easy with FolioLink's administrative interface. And when I had questions about the xml customization, search engine optimization, etc., tech support was fast and thorough. As web design technology changes, FolioLink stays on top of it instead of me having to worry about how my website will function with the latest browser or display app. As a result, I have a site that gets great feedback from clients, brings in new work and allows me to spend my time shooting instead of getting caught up in the details of website management.

"A shadow passing leaves no trace but for a moment captured. Preserving that moment - that split second when light and shadow, line and form, color and texture all come together ; the moment when a glance or facial expression turns from posed to revealing ... is what drives me to create photographs. It's more than a simple desire ... it's a necessity." Known for his evocative portraits and graphic style, Virginia photographer, Robert Rathe produces award-winning photography for advertising, annual reports and corporate collateral. Robert provides both studio and location photography for clients around the country including: AAA, Accenture, American Chemical Society, AT&T, CACI, Cisco, Computer Sciences Corp., Dell Computer, ExxonMobil, General Electric, GTE, IBM, NASDAQ, NIST, Orbital Sciences, Unisys, Verizon and Washington Gas.

As a graphic designer and art director, I’ve created many websites for many clients. However, like many creative people, I’ve never had the time to create my own site, something I desperately needed to do. So when I heard about Foliolink and saw how clean and elegant their designs were, and how easy it was to create a website that reflected my own aesthetics, I immediately jumped on board. And I’ve been extremely happy with the results. The people at Foliolink are wonderful and helpful, and I love the look and functionality of my flash site. Finding Foliolink was such a relief for me. It’s been manna from Heaven. I’d recommend them to any busy creative in need of an online portfolio.

A writer, designer and creative on hundreds of commercials, Christopher spent the last 20 years working for ad agencies all over the world. Three years ago, he started christopherWILSONphotography. Since then, and much to his delight, he has worked constantly as a photographer. Before that, he was a ballet dancer. He danced 8 hours a day, survived on bread and coffee, looked like hell and broke his ankle twice. But he still insists it was fun. What an idiot. He has two daughters, Celia and Raney, by far the best things he has ever created. His wife, Cathy, lives in the center of his heart.

Foliolink has allowed me to concentrate on what I most like doing - shooting pictures ! It has given me a compelling and changeable web based gallery in which to exhibit my work. The ease and intuitive design has allowed me to show a greater amount of work in a much more streamlined website. As my work is forever evolving and changing so must my presentation and Foliolink has made that possible. The staff at Foliolink is great, they are always available to help with changes or questions and they truly make the whole process extremely simple and enjoyable.

Daniel began his photography career when he was just a wee lad at the knee of his grandfather. Photography has taken him to every corner of the globe and exposed him to some of the worlds greatest beauty. He now splits his time between NYC and the west coast. Daniel considers ALL work to be personal work and brings energy and enthusiasm to every shoot. When not shooting he can often be found at daybreak atop a surfboard paddling out to enjoy the oceans offerings. Daniel and his wife Rosie are also kept busy by their dynamically active six year old twin sons, Maxwell and Nicholas.

Thanks to Foliolink I have a website that has great features, value for money and at last a website that I can add my latest work without needing to negotiate time and money with a designer when you want to change some pictures. The website designs look great and with very little experience you can customize your site to get a very professional and personalized look - all within a day!

Based in Melbourne Australia, Steve Diffey specializes in advertising and corporate photography, with a body of work that includes award-winning images for Red Cross Australia and the Heide Gallery of Modern Art.

I chose FolioLink.com after sampling two other website services. FolioLink website designs present my work clearly and professionally. My website receives constant complements from galleries and other artists. I have about 30 seconds to engage a viewer with my work. This site elegantly does the job. The staff at FolioLink patiently taught me how to manipulate my website to my own taste. They are attentive and delightful to work with. I now update my site within an hour of completing a piece. I am exponentially gaining exposure and have signed with one gallery while looking for more. FolioLink is the answer.

I am a visual archaeologist. My drawings and paintings combine unrelated images collected from my tropical surroundings and travels to tell stories. I am fascinated with the relationship between structure and spirit, fragments and whole, visible and invisible, presence and absence. The biggest complement I have received is: I can not stop looking at this! My goal is to engage you with a thought provoking composition of transitions between renderings. My influences are Lee Bontecou and Julia DArcy. I studied at SAIC-Chicago, Kansas University and have my BFA in Illustration from Cornish College of the Arts, Seattle. My work shows locally and has won numerous awards. I teach drawing at Coral Springs Museum of Art.

Since early in my career as a professional painter, I have had a Web site that was created by a web designer. While the design was great, I felt frustrated with not being able to go in and make changes on my own schedule — whenever I wanted, without being sent a bill. I was delighted with how easily and quickly I could get my Foliolink site up and running. Any problems or questions were answered quickly, so I could pull my whole site together within a few days. The best part of all of this is the reactions I have gotten from people in the art and graphic design business, telling my how wonderful my new site is! Thanks Foliolink!

Like the fantastic imagined landscapes she creates, Nancy Tobin has constructed her career in layers: varied but consistent in its commitment to form, technique and process. Her dedication to art-making started early, parlaying a degree in commercial art into a successful career as an award-winning graphic designer and children’s book illustrator. Since her move to the New York area she has had solo and group exhibitions in galleries and museums across the country. In 2007, Tobin won the Brodsky Center for Innovative Print and Papermaking fellowship at Rutgers University. Her work has been acquired by numerous private and museum collections.

I searched for over a year for an artist-friendly website solution before finally settling with Foliolink. There is no other service that comes close to offering an intelligent, elegant, streamlined design and functionality of a website focused on showcasing and sharing art, with the value and support they offer. Reasonably priced and enough flexibility for easy customization that provides a professional marketing asset which can adapt to fit a clients needs, and evolve with your art.

Douglas Capron is an emerging photographer, visual artist and printmaker. Being recently invited to exhibit in Italy convinced him to focus full time on his passion. His varied work ranges from themes exploring nature and our environment to musicians, landscapes and portraiture. I started filming a documentary on Blues music 15 years ago. It opened the door to photographing musicians which inspired me to explore photography as an art form. My creative decisions are mostly unconventional and intuitive, responding to the unexpected. I hope my work conveys a feeling which travels beyond sentiment and graphic emotional impact, and sustains a subtle dialogue with the viewer. Douglas is currently working on a book of his photography based on his recent trip to Japan, scheduled for release in Spring, 2009.

I have been very happy with the speed and efficiency of getting my work up in such a beautiful online format at Foliolink. The staff member who helped me was wonderfully patient as she telephonically held my hand through new adventures in things like tweaking XML, and I watched my site blossom into something truly special. My work has NEVER looked this good online and as the web has grown into the primary interface between photography buyers and artists the power of this important first-impression is brought home to me every day. I have had several friends inquire already about moving their sites to Foliolink, a move I can heartily recommend.

Rick Olivier has been photographing the music and culture of New Orleans and South Louisiana since his high school days in the mid-70s. His earliest professional achievement was winning two Louisiana Press Association Awards for Feature Photography at the age of 16. He moved to New Orleans in 1982 and established himself as an acute observer of the local music scene and by the mid-Eighties had branched out into corporate, advertising, and editorial assignments for national magazines. His book, Zydeco! won the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities Book Of The Year Award. His music photographs have appeared on more than one hundred record covers and his portraits have twice graced the cover of the New York Times Magazine.

My Foliolink websiite has gotten a ton of positive feedback for the look of the website and the way it handles all the content! The surprising amount of user controlled custom features are a delight to use and what I couldn’t figure out myself the staff at Foliolink handled in a few emails! I checked out LiveBooks and a few other similar services but Foliolink has so much more to offer.

My work straddles the two worlds of assignment photography and self-assigned projects for sale in galleries as prints or programmed in limited edition, handmade artist books. I intend my website to appeal to the widest range of image professionals who must quickly realize that in the final analysis, it is a strong personal vision which counts the most! The images in the WORKPLACE and WORKFORCE portfolios are from a long term ( ‘99-’05) documentation of the former maritime/industrial area along the South-East San Francisco waterfront.

Foliolink offers professional quality sites with contemporary styles and great customer support! Website templates allow for significant customization while remaining user friendly. My website was up fast and I have complete control to change features anytime. Having this website has been invaluable to my business.

Chris first picked up a camera to document life and work in isolated areas of Canada's North. Places where immense, stark landscapes were highlighted by changing 24 hour light. Attempting to understand his place amidst the imposing natural forces soon drove his motivation to photograph. He became focused on the interactions between himself, others, animals, plants, climate, and land. Chris remains inspired by the organic forces in photography as he works on providing imagery for stock, wedding, and commercial clients. He currently lives in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada in one of the sunniest places in the country.

The main advantage of Foliolink is that the way to build your site is as easy as it can be, changing images within minutes making it possible to show my most recent jobs. Also, the enormous diversity in website designs is a big plus. In that way, I can always show my work in the best possible environment, not letting the website be the hero, but leaving that up to the photographs that are shown within it.

As I started 16 years ago as a photographers assistant, just leaving school, I immediately knew photography was what I wanted. I saw the diversity in subjects and the different ways of handling and using light/camera technique, both in studio and location, using them to create a unique personal style and atmosphere. After starting a studio in the centre of Amsterdam myself I always looked for this personal touch, never letting the camera be the leading instrument but always using it to make what I imagined the image should look like. In that way I shoot cars and stills with the same passion as people though I shoot mainly cars, both editorial, as well as, for the major ad agencies.

When it come to building web sites, I have gone through the whole spectrum of hiring web designers, designing and building my own, to what I now believe is the future for creative artist like me; the drag and drop. Once a year I would lock myself in my office for three weeks and labor over building a site. With FolioLink, I can create a custom looking site in a matter of hours. The number of design templates and creative options are unprecedented. Now the hardest part about building a web site come down to choosing my images.

The one thing that I have try to do as a commercial adverting photographer, is to present and promote myself first and foremost as an artist. I want the art director hiring me to get a sense that I am more interested in the process of creating a remarkable image than collecting a paycheck. I have little interest in the image associated with being a photographer, my passion lies in the image that can put in a frame and hung on the wall.

After years of developing custom web designs (and many hours of trying to get things right with programmers) we decided to try FolioLink. We found the designs of FolioLink to be very tasteful, attractive and well executed. We've found the staff to be accessable and helpful. We have no regrets for using their designs and have received numerous compliments on our new website.

Anthony is a photographer who truly enjoys exploring new ways of using light, color and metaphor to create interesting photographs. He is a first generation Italian-American who grew up surrounded by parents and relatives who shared an excitement about a promising future in their new world, and enjoyed working to make it so. Anthony's mother had a childlike curiosity and was ever doing new art and craft projects. His father had a happy outlook tied to a strong work ethic as a home builder. His parents' enthusiasm, their energy, their love of beauty and art, their general happiness, their desire to try something new and accomplish things all had a strong influence on Anthony's developing persona. At the Center for Creative Studies which is surrounded by the art culture of Detroit, Michigan, he was exposed to a rich and fulfilling education and an appreciation for the arts. As a new photographer, Anthony moved to Paris, where he gained confidence with the realization that being a visual person can have great worth. He has traveled throughout the U.S. and Europe on assignments. Wherever he goes, Anthony carries his camera and idea notebook with him. He is continually experimenting with lighting, props and backgrounds, and applies his discoveries to new projects.

Foliolink has made marketing my web site remarkably easy. Hiring designers in the past did not allow me complete control as I have with Foliolink. Custom designing is a great benefit and uploading images is a snap. I am constantly shooting promos, so getting photos up on the site fast is a major plus. One of my favorite features is the site compatibility with the iPhone. My clients love it and it is great fun just to show off.

While pursuing a degree in graphic design, he was required to take a class in photography and subsequently found his true career path.

FolioLink has allowed me to design a website that is both dynamic and easy to maintain. My first website was done using one of the popular web design programs. It was done several years ago and served its purpose for the time. Updating it was quite difficult for me and after a while I stopped adding new content. I looked into having a website professionally done but the costs were too high. I discovered FolioLink while looking at another photographer’s website. I took advantage of the free trial and by the end of the trial period decided it was just what I was looking for. The cost for setup and hosting were reasonable and with all the templates available it was very easy for me to design a website I liked. I was able to create one that was both dynamic, through the use of Flash templates, and one, which was easy to update. The nice thing about FolioLink is the ability to update my site anytime I want regardless of where I am. I travel quite a lot so being able to easily update my site on the road was important to me. The other feature I like is the statistics that are available. They provide both the information about how well my site is doing and where my hits are coming from. Of all the options I looked at for creating and maintaining a website, FolioLink, by far, had the most to offer. I’m pleased I have chosen FolioLink for my website needs.

John Chakeres has been a photographer for more then 40 years.

He has been a contributing editor to PhotoMethods magazine and taught photography and printmaking at Ohio University. He currently teaches photography and digital imaging at Columbus State Community College and resides in Columbus Ohio.

Soon after graduating from The Cooper Union School of Art in 1999, he acquired a studio space in Chelsea, NYC. Since then he has been exhibiting his art in galleries throughout the United States.

I needed to update my world window and a friend suggested Foliolink. As a beginner on the computer I was worried about all the applications and complications that might occur while building a website. I must say that it has been much easier than I imagined. I have been very happy with both the process, and even more so with the results. A thanks to my friend and certainly to Foliolink for the quality, esthetic values and the warm professional assistance, that they seem to be so well known for.

I am an American sculptor living in France, my medium is clay and glazes. My work reflects upon the fundamental issues affecting modern society and its choices today. Despite a humorous, candy like depiction the themes are quite serious. They have a narrative and symbolic quality, often treating universal issues, political events or natural tragedies. There are 3 axes to my work: portraits, stacking and piling and decorative ceramic pieces. I exhibit often in Paris.

Working with Foliolink team was a wonderful experience. They really understood what my photo-based work is about. They worked with me to create a multimedia experience similar to my photo-based installations, while showcasing the photographs and maintaining the narrative context of my work.

Muriel explores the intricacies and emotional reverberations of identity through art, and uses photography and personal histories as the vehicles for exchange. Through an intergenerational, transnational, and transcultural lens, she crafts a language that expresses a shared humanity, while erasing the borders that maintain our "Otherness."

A couple of months ago I started looking into changing my website. After researching tons of web templates and web design companies. I came across Foliolink. I was very impressed and excited with the variety of templates they offered. I quickly called and was equally happy to see how helpful they were to my every question regarding the template I preferred. The staff has been a great help and they have worked with me every step of the way.. THANK YOU !!

A universe of Visual imagery is my world. Born to Italian parents and immigrating to the United States, mastering English was a challenge. I used art as a form of communication, as a consequence fine art became a major part of my life. Eighteen years ago I ventured into a new realm of art known as Body painting. I used Body paint as an extension to my fine art. My body painting evolved. This has enabled me to cross boundaries, and introduced my interpretation of the living canvas ' Body painting’ to the world.

“My experience with FolioLink has been very positive and productive. Their team is helpful knowledgeable and responds quickly when I have questions or need to resolve a problem. In this world of many choices and complexity, I think one of the best things about having a FolioLink website is it’s ease of use, simple interface and quick-loading pages. Many clients and collectors of mine have commented on how easy it is to navigate and the crisp, clean design that highlights my work. I’d like to think that it is my paintings alone, that have been the reason for clients buying work through the site. But, in truth, the top-notch presentation of my FolioLink website, as part of an overall marketing plan, helps a great deal.” -Philip Frey

“Philip Frey’s sophisticated paintings and accomplishments reflect a burgeoning career. In his portrayal of Maine coastal life, Frey’s colors often capture a boldness that reminds us of the capacity of light to call one into an atmosphere of cool awakening. A signature Frey landscape stands out for its use of dynamic brushstrokes and luminosity. In all of them, there is poised use of shape, a delight in the sheer patterning and lighting of objects, and an overall visual harmony and joy. He exhibits in several distinguished galleries as far south as Virginia and his work is collected here and abroad. Mr. Frey is an artist whose career is in rapid ascendancy and is one that bears close watching over the decade to come.” - As excerpted from The Firehouse Gallery biography.

In brief, Foliolink has been a godsend. After years working as a computer game artist, learning many different software tools, it has been a joy to relinquish my technical expertise to the experts. Because I use Foliolink for my website, I no longer have to stay abreast of the latest changes in website or internet technology. In my experience, Foliolink has been a responsive and well informed institution. I can always rely on their staff to assist me quickly and efficiently, thereby allowing me to focus on what I love…..creating art.

Above all things I am a painter. I have been college educated and raised by artist parents. I have worked as a commercial and fine artist for others. Today I am my own artist who covets artwork that inspires. If a painting tells me a story or hints at a story which leaves the conclusion up to me, I am enrapt. I am devoted to artwork painted with attention to detail and savor traditional art making processes. As a collector this is what I look for in other artists’ work. As a painter this is the standard I create by.

How easy is this to use? I had my photographic portfolio up and running within a couple or hours , and I can add and delete images with ease even when out on assignment. I can change the entire look and feel of the site with the click of a mouse . I'm continually asked by clients and fellow photographers who built my website. Just last week I had a call from a potential new client. I was able to quickly load up a potfolio suiting his style requirement in under 15 minutes before calling him and directing him to my site. Thanks Foliolink for a easy to use but feature packed, professional website. Grant Turner / Mediakoo Photography

What I love about my Foliolink site is fast, efficient and elegant communication of both visual and written information. I want my website imagery to speak for itself through a clean uncluttered window and for the client to be in control of viewing at a pace that pleases them. Foliolink delivers all of this and more for a price that has proved the best value I could wish for. Telephone support is first rate and the ease in which I can update my galleries and refresh my website has made me a very happy photographer and also a loyal Foliolink client.

I'm Gary - a photographer for over 20 years. My primary focus is now photographing weddings, a subject perfectly suited to my reportage style which has evolved from years of working as a photojournalist covering international sporting events (including tennis Grand Slams and the Olympics) and shooting magazine assignments. I constantly strive to anticipate moments and capture what cannot be re-created. The result - an emotive, beautifully observed and well crafted visual narrative of my client's weddings. Whilst shooting in the digital age and embracing the advantages of the technologies available, I am very selective in the tools I adopt to shoot or showcase and promote myself. I like to keep things pure and simple. No over-worked post-production techniques for me! This simple philosophy extends to my website - bells and whistles are not necessary, complicated site navigation menus just get in the way.

I have been painting and exhibiting for 30 years. Foliolink gave me the means to establish exhibitions in New York and make connections to museums. While I lived New York City in the nineties I could get only one studio visit from a major gallery. After two years of courting one gallery, I handed my card to the owner last fall with the newly established website. The owner immediately went online to look at new work. After he made selections, I delivered the work to the gallery within a week. I have a show up now at Robert Steele Gallery in NYC through August 26, another planned for this year, and a major solo show in two years. I was greatly helped by your service.

Known for his monochromatic paintings of grids saturated in color, and lyrical paintings of vertical lines, the new intricately composed paintings of Pulse create a universe of both motion and emotion. Unpredictable twists and turns of bold lyrical ribbons pulsate with color and energy. The natural world and music have always impacted Moore’s inner world. The multi-layers of the paintings are as complex and intricate as a jazz improvisation. He earned his MFA degree in painting at Bard College, NY, and exhibits at Robert Steele Gallery in NYC, and Kidder Smith Gallery in Boston, MA

I have been completely happy with the foliolink service, and especially impressed every time I have had a question to resolve. It’s always easy to reach a real (and smart) person on the phone, and they are clearly interested in helping to figure out solutions. It feels like I have a partner on the other side of the computer labyrinth.

“Pleasure and accidents both play a strong role in the work I do. Accidents are sometimes the starting point; a spill or crack or an unintended line, a way of the medium speaking up for itself. Pleasure is often what leads me on along the path. Pleasure does not necessarily mean comfort; the unexpected turn, the edge of an abyss, the odd bodily feeling that I recognize without knowing its name is pleasurable to me. I’m trying to feel my way sensually without having to decide what it means ahead of time.” Christy Hengst lives and works in Santa Fe.

I was originally drawn to Foliolink because I liked the sharp, professional look of their sample websites for artists. I had been looking for an easy-to-use system that would allow me to design and maintain my own site without costing an arm and a leg. Foliolink provided me with everything I had been looking for. I was able to create my basic site and upload my artwork within a couple of hours, and I was up and running with a fully functional website by the end of the day. People have complimented me on my site, assuming that it was created by professionals. I am happy to refer them to Foliolink, knowing that they will be as thrilled with the results as I am!!

Heidi Lewis Coleman is a Connecticut artist, but she was born and raised in Yakima, a small farming town in Central Washington State. The colors of the countryside were rich and warm and translated into the same earthy palette that the artist uses to create her vibrant paintings. Yakima was named for one of the Indian tribes which has long populated its valley. The weavings and basketry of the Northwest tribes became a source of inspiration for the artist and have influenced the primitive style of her abstract work. Coleman studied art at Parsons and the New York School of Design. She has exhibited in Connecticut, Washington, Florida and New York City.

It was so great! I was having dinner watching the beautiful sunset of Lake Tahoe when a gentleman overheard me talking about being a painter. I mentioned that he could see my work on http://meredithniles.com. He stopped by my studio and purchased one of my favorite paintings. I can truly say it was because of my Foliolink website that this painting sold and I only had the site for a few months. I am very pleased with the service!!

“My intention in the paintings is to create a sense of calm, ironically using the boldest colors and shapes. I want the viewer to remove themselves from their hectic lives and momentarily contemplate the quiet tradition of still life in the context of architecturally bold environments. I first combined silver and pinecones eliciting thoughts of one’s city life with one’s weekends at play in the woods. I then became intrigued with the beauty of fruit and their reflections as the light comes through the window of my home. Living in Tahoe, the amazing landscape is now directing my attention outdoors.”

I was introduced to FolioLink by my friend and fellow photographer, Keith Jochim. From the outset, the crew were, to a person, not only helpful, but enthusiastic about getting my site up to speed and achieving a look that would satisfy me. Their responses have always been very prompt, detailed and personal, regardless of the topic in question. At no time have I felt that I am communicating with an organisation. I have always felt like I am dealing with dedicated, knowledgeable and interested individuals. And they are good fun to work with! I am getting excellent information on visitors to my site as well as excellent reactions to my work. I cannot recommend FolioLink more highly and I am very pleased to be a member of the FolioLink network.

For me, image-making involves the same challenge as that which is demanded by poetry: look, look harder, distil, seek out the play of lightness within darkness, the ambiguity that hovers behind description, and set down something that just might be able to evoke an emotional or psychological connection. It is my goal to ask questions in a voice that does not shout, and I hope that the relationship between my images and the viewer might be like a conversation that two people not well known to each other might engage in late at night – a kind of sotto voce exchange in which the participants are inclined to lean toward one another, quieten down, listen carefully.
