WELCOME TO LIFEFROOTS

I AM JUSTIN AND THIS IS MY PORTFOLIO

Photography Template

This was a photographer's portfolio that was designed and developed but not yet launched. It was built with the photography in the limelight with minimal controls, giving as much real estate as possible to the photographs. With only three main UI controls, it allows the user to view the current or all photos in a white or black environment. Given the high saturation and high contrast of the photos, each look much more vivid against one of the two backdrops.

about me

First of all, thank you for visiting! My name is Justin Wagner and Lifefroots is my portfolio. Why 'lifefroots' you may ask? Well bottom line, justinwagner.com was taken. Next I thought it was a play on either the 'fruit of me life' and my 'life roots'. I thought it might linger in someone's mind longer than the other options I had — so it was fine for the time being and it just stuck over the years. My passion for web and UI design is most likely the reason you are here - It is a large part of who I am.

Some other things that play into my workflow (in some form or another) are my of interests/addictions in art, cheese, coffee, bmx, whiskey, wine, roadbikes, my cats, my cats' wardrobe, music, sushi, technology (part-fanboy), vintage motorcycles, and zombies.

A few little disclaimer notes: I really hate IE. It is no good. Really, really no good. Also, I always say that design for a large part is subjective, someone might see something as being totally cool and you might see it as terrible. That being said, I hope you found at least something interesting here ( if not that's ok. It happens sometimes. - I can deal with it, and apologize in wasting your time). If you think of yourself as the be-all-end-all of design, as a favor to me please close this page, I don't have the bandwidth to support your ego.
