How to wrap the contents around an image? - html

Question

I am trying to create an about page for a personal website. I am wondering how to wrap the text around the picture. I want this kind of effect. http://alexbudak.com/about/
The code I have right now is:
<div class="about_content">
<img src="placeholder.jpg" alt="">

<h2>A Note From the Founder</h2>
<p>
The idea for The Tailory New York began when I decided to direct my years of fashion design and men’s tailoring experience towards my own wardrobe. As a pant suit aficionado and a lover of men’s fashion and tailoring, I was always drawn to tailored clothing and strived to create fashion that conveyed the same message of confidence that a perfectly custom tailored suit did for men. Style icons like Sean Connery and Cary Grant, as well as modern day 007 Daniel Craig (shaken not stirred) were always my style inspirations. To me, they are the epitome of refinement and sophistication, true gentlemen in style.
My passion for fashion and tailoring led me through the Fashion Design program at Parsons followed by stints in custom tailoring, fashion design, fashion styling and brand development. But the more I integrated myself in the industry, the more I realized that impeccable fit, for men and women, was almost impossible to find in ready to wear clothing. So, I launched The Tailory New York, a way for me to combine my two passions, Fashion Design and Custom Tailoring. Everyone wants to look their best and having a wardrobe curated to your body and lifestyle not only enables you to look your best but makes you feel your best.

and the css is:
h2{
margin: 0 0 1.2em 0;
font-family: 'Raleway', 'sans-serif';
font-weight: normal;
}
.about_content{
width: 500px;
overflow: hidden;
}
.about_content img{
margin-right: 15px;
float: left;
}
.about_content p: last-child{
margin-bottom: 0;
}

Answer 1

What you have now will cause the content to wrap around the image. The trick to doing this is applying float: left; to the image, which you have already done.
What I'm suspecting is happening is your image is too wide. If it's 500px or wider, the image will take up the entire width of .about_content, so you need to limit the size of the image. Here's an example utilizing max-width on the image.
h2{
margin: 0 0 1.2em 0;
font-family: 'Raleway', 'sans-serif';
font-weight: normal;
}
.about_content{
width: 500px;
overflow: hidden;
}
.about_content img{
margin-right: 15px;
float: left;
max-width: 250px;
}
.about_content p: last-child{
margin-bottom: 0;
}
<div class="about_content">
