hi guys, finaly took the time to redo my site with some of my latest images to keep it fresh. Please give some CC on it as far as layout etc... There's still some minor tweaking etc.. but almost done. You might need the latest flash installed, firefox is the recommended browser (displays png).

pretty cool man, i like the rounded corners (im a rounded corners whore)
not a fan of the font on the about page.. make it something easier to read, like helvetica/arial/myriad pro
love how the blog fits inside your webpage seamlessly (like my site)
very clean, love the use of the colors, and the white space.
overall great site, keep it up, post more :)
what web slideshow/gallery is that using? (http://www.cynthiaandsergio.com/)

thanks, i love rounded corners as well. Concerning the About page, yes that's in the works , this was the image I had on my previous site. I'm well aware it doesn't blend.
All my galleries run with SSP (Slideshow Pro) & with the Director I can add/remove images on the fly fast from a database on my server. i will totally recommend it!

I like it Juan, very simple and to the point. And you have some great work in there. I am actually against putting a face (my face) on my company. but you pulled it off really nicely and the pictures of you look great, gives it a very personal feel.

hey Thanks Hassan, you wouldn't believe what I went through to take those pictures of myself. But I like the results. Have you been able to fix your site?

Juan, I am going through some issue right now with the site, but It should be fixed soon. And I know about the self portraits, its so hard when no one is helping you.
I tried it two days ago and I did not yield good results, I wasn't getting the proper focus. But now that I know you did those pictures yourself, I like them even more because I know how hard it is.
And its really funny Juan, We have exactly the same gear. I just got two pocket wizards not to long ago.

I was going to mention that to you the other day :D, anyhow actually my cousin shot those with his 30d he's into shooting stock photography etc.. not portraits so he didn't know what I wanted exactly but I don't have a studio yet, so I used the black shade of a reflector as a background wrapped around me (using some creativeness) to achieve that look and had several lights aiming at me till we shot it right. He shot close to 50 images and finally it was PP which gave it that final touch.

Looks good Juan - I'm not keen on the phrase Photojournalistic Weddings though. It doesn't sound quite right to me. Perhaps Wedding Photojournalism or Photojournalist Weddings

I like it but I kept looking for a link at the top with pricing.

great suggestion, I'll take care of it sometime soon! I appreciate it.

I'm definitely working on it, and also an FAQ which will answer some questions about my services... any other suggestions
