AutoFocus

AutoFocus is a beautiful free WordPress theme built specifically for photographers looking for a simple way to showcase their work online.

The theme features a unique homepage layout with autosized images and large full-width images on the individual article pages. An optional single-column version of the homepage is also available.

AutoFocus makes great use of typography considering its photo-centric focus. Also, mousing over any of the images on the homepage or the category pages reveals an excerpt of the post content, which is an attractive touch.

Perhaps best of all, no custom fields are needed. Images are uploaded using the Media Uploader, and resizing is handled automatically. The theme grabs the images directly from the article, making this a great theme for a less experienced user.
