Operation Manual

In Aperture, you can easily create webpages of your images that you can post to your

MobileMe account homepage or to your own website. Then clients can conveniently

review your work via the Internet. Using the built-in Aperture webpage themes, or designs,

you can create web galleries that show your images in eye-catching settings. You can

also create web journal pages of images and explanatory text, narrative, or captions that

support your images. For example, you might create web journal pages that show and

tell the story of an overseas shoot or a journalistic project.

An Overview of Creating Webpages

Web delivery is convenient when time won’t allow office visits or delivery of prints to

clients. Photographers around the world currently benefit from web distribution of their

works, providing clients with online access to galleries of their best images. Building a

web portfolio for prospective clients can extend the reach of your photography business

and reputation globally.

Using Aperture, you can create web galleries and web journals that you can post on your

website or on your MobileMe account. Your web galleries and web journals are based

on themes, or page designs. They can be edited easily in the Webpage Editor and can

be posted to the web.
