Considerations

Requirements for Client Who Wants Minimal

Client: Lois Lane
Website: Shopping Reviews

Client liked these sites,

The purpose is to showcase art, photography or photos of family to share with others so it has the following additional requirements,

The actual Instragram Blog layout is very good and meets all the criteria except for,

Should have titles grouping photos (by date or event)
The automatic dynamic scrolling, I'm not a big fan of personally. On the fence if it adds usability or confuses users. However, just noticed in other profiles you can change to a load more button.
Zoom view does not seem high quality (but this might be on purpose)

Shortlist,

Evolutiion - responsive, simple, up to date, packaged with other well done themes - http://elegantthemes.com/preview/Evolution/

Don't like ow the images link, there are two icons one for expand and another for link (however we may be able to customize this).

BigBang - meets all criteria and the other ones done by this company look very good - http://demo.brankic.net/?theme=BigBangWP

Don't like how the images link, there are two icons one for expand and another for link.

http://themeforest.net/ - Very large collection, well organized.

http://press75.com/ - Another one, I might like Social Life near the bottom.
