Skyrim Photographer

I have endeavored to take super high quality high resolution photos/screenshots of my adventures in Skyrim, and even to journal them by writing some fan fiction. I have created a huge archive of screen shots for use as wallpapers that are hosted on my own server, all 100% for free, no adds, no banners, just beautiful images, music and stories.

I have posted this at other forums and just want to share the beauty of the greatest game ever made!

http://www.aleciashepherd.com

Click on the Skyrim Logo at the bottom of the page and you will be in the Journal. There are only a few stories so far, but like I said, 100's of screen shots I put into an html5 gallery of sorts, AND, also have a file-view where you can download based on the name of the Wallpaper. Have fun everyone! Other forums so far have really been loving the shots! You might like the one entitled Shimmering Whiterun, Blood Moon, and there's even lots of action shots versus frost and fire dragons, ancients, elders and lots more. And dear, sweet Cicero! :D

Also, if you have requests of Wallpapers you would like to see captured from within the game, I can try to get shots for you and put them up on the site too! :D

Use the console to hide the UI - the tilde '~' key below is literal, enter it once to open console, enter it again to close console - the game pauses when it's open.

~togglemenus (UI disappears)*still photos*~*action photos*~togglemenus (UI reappears - you can use the up arrow key to select the previous command, so you don't have to blind type)~


Also, the page you link to contains self advertising--you should change it to go directly to the gallery. (Friendly suggestion--otherwise you might get reported and the post removed.)

Great pictures, thanks so much for sharing, but agree, you need to great rid of the UI and toggle the freecam to get better shots.

Skyrim is beautiful, I agree!

Yes, I know about suppressing the HUD now. I use the TM option on the console most of the time now. MOST of the screen shots have no HUD. Some have HUD to show the name of the NPC intentionally. But I haven't left HUD in the screen shots and wallpapers for a long time now. I am very sorry about that, though....for the ones that do have HUD in them.

Make requests for shots if you want to. Also, I wonder if it matters about self-advertising since I don't charge anything at all for any of my creatives, music, etc?

Have fun, all! I just completed a very extensive run through Blackreach and took a ton of shots in there, including shots of some items that could be considered spoilers, I am not sure.

I just added 7 totally epic Wallpapers! I took 100's of shots of Darkreach, the war, questing and even Soverngarde! If there is still interest I will post the best of the shots for more wallpapers.

It does matter. The page you linked to in the first post does include advertising to purchase poetry and music from Amazon, so what you said here is incorrect. I must agree with eggrock that you should change the link to point to what is relevent to these forums. Otherwise the thread just gives the 'appearance' of the shameless promotion of a self-congratulatory website.

I really mean no personal offence to you, but if you wish to show the very nice pictures and journal you have created, you should consider changing the link.

Advertising your site is not allowed here. Sorry. You may sport the link in your sig.
