Professional photo lab H & H Color Lab have released 4 free WordPress themes for photographers. There are slight differences between the themes though they all share common features such as a full-screen background.
They also come with social media profile buttons for your RSS feed, Facebook fan page, Twitter profile, and much more. A blog and gallery template is included with each theme too. Add These sharing buttons have also been integrated underneath posts so that visitors can share your content.
1. Black and White
2. Elegant Photography
3. Photo Book
4. Pure Photography
All themes come with their own options area. There are 4 sections: basic settings, gallery settings, background slider and social media links. In the basic settings section you can upload your logo, change what fonts are used, change the colour of links and change the copyright notice at the bottom of the page.
There are 6 different types of galleries to choose from. You can change the animation speed between images and whether images are shown in a slideshow automatically.
7 different background slider effects can be chosen and you can change the time between slides and the speed in which slides transition. You can add up to 8 images for your background slider. All of these images can be uploaded via the settings area.
The Add This sharing links can be enabled and disabled via the settings area. You can also add up to 7 social media profile icons in the footer: Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Digg, Reddit, StumbleUpon and RSS.
Whilst these themes are not the most advanced photography themes available, they are free to download and are perfect for those of you who just want to display your portfolio online. They’ve got a pretty good options area too and the background slider works really well. I recommend giving it a try.
Thanks,
