Having a theme provides a consistent and lets you tell a story through social media posts or gallery on your website. It's the glue that helps you stick the pictures on to the paper.


My photography tutor gave me advice on to theme my posts on my social media channels. I needed a more consistent collection of pictures to tell a story or compliment each other when people discover my channels.


On my website, where my biggest fans see my blog, I need my articles to be high-quality to retain viewers in my ecosystem.


Theming is the key: Whether I need to use pictures to illustrate what I'm writing. I.e. What's my favourite weather to photograph cars. Its sunset.

Or, want to use my content to tell stories and provide an atmosphere. I.e. How I got to photograph the JSCC event at Oulton Park or, my time photographing at a local supercar dealer.


How do I curate my photographic exhibit?

I curate my photographic exhibit split into four types: time/date, location, car company/s and weather.


It's excellent when you get a collection of pictures that complement each other and have different aspect ratios to give a dynamic feel. You can even use your content as a virtual brochure.


I also love to target a specific audience/s, whether it's my BMW gallery or, Performance Cars of South Korea. I can better target a niche gallery than if I did a broad set of pictures. Indeed!
