title: Should a CMS be used for a photographer portfolio web site?
body: <p>My friend photographer asked me to develop a portfolio web site, and I'm wondering if a content management system (CMS) should be used for this purpose? The website contains a minimum of dynamic stuff, mostly just photo galleries and a "Contacts" page.</p>
  
  <p>I have some experience in development using PHP frameworks (Yii and CI), so it makes me wonder what is the most effortless and effective way to do develop this: </p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><p>a) use some kind of CMS (will take time and effort to learn and
  customize CMS to fit my needs)</p></li>
  <li><p>b) develop a website from scratch using MVC framework (need to write
  more code, but more control over the development flow)</p></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Any tips from people experienced in developing those kind of websites is much appriciated. Thanks.</p>
