Polaroid Cameras are extremely popular amongst in the alternative Zeitgeist currently. Rookie magazine often feature polaroid shots in their publication and many Tumblr bloggers own a polaroid camera. They're valued currently for their retro aesthetic and Urban Outfitters stock an extensive range of polaroid cameras and film.
I think that using a polaroid aesthetic for the photos in my contents page will appeal to my target audience sine that look is commonplace in Rookie Mag, Tumblr and Urban Outfitters.
These photos were digital images but have been manipulated and given a polariod boarder for purely aesthetic reasons, I found them on Tumblr. They are of indie/alternative musicians such as Grimes, St Vincent, Lana Del Rey and Marina Diamandis.
This theme has become so popular that pop artist Taylor Swift has used a polaroid as an album cover and put an extensive collection of polariods as an insert for her album.
This shows that a polariod aesthetic is very hip and current; it would work very well in my contents page.
