Well ... no one can say I don't have experience building photography websites. Believe or not, it's nearly impossible to template these sites for re-use. Photographers are artists and always want their sites to be slightly (or extremely) different from everyone else's. I built Ben Grieme's original site a few years ago using AJAX/PHP/mySQL. This time around I went with flash (actionscript 3) because of the aforementioned bitmap features.
