I've previously had business cards, but because my number changed and I was pregnant and took of family time, I tossed them. Now I'm working to get back into the business, and decided that along with getting back into the game I need to refresh my cards, and soon my website. I'm not going to worry about my site yet, but I do need to get my cards put together and printed so that I can give a few to the bride I photographed a week ago along with her wedding book and images.

CC and suggestions appreciated.

Do they seem to give an underlying subliminal message to get cold feet???

And no, I'm not looking to hire anyone for design work, I have a friend in that business, and will go straight to her when I'm ready to take that step, for now I'm working towards the 40D over my XT before I get too worked up over that...

ITs OK, not a knockout. But nice. The images work well for the layout you made.

I think they are worth printing.

Im at the point I have to make some up. It s a lot easier to tell other people that the cards are good or bad, than it is to judge your own.

The first one is nice. Any reason why the font for "Wedding" on the second one is different from the rest?

It's not first and second cards, but rather front and back...

Anyway, I'm assuming Kaylene specializes in weddings and wants to make that apparent? I'd opt for just putting "Wedding" at the top of the list.

Yeah, I specialize in weddings, when people ask me what I do I say I'm a wedding photographer. It's not first because it's in chronological order because people get so uptight about "taking pictures of old people" as a specialization...

Oh, and I have Quinceañera and Senior switched on the printed card... Did I mention I went ahead and sent them to print?

I think they are pretty good, I would have made the opacity for the pictures(both sides) around 65% so the font jumps out at you. But that is just me...

I think your card looks pretty good. I agree with the opacity comment above. The only thing I noticed is that the font may be too small on the back. I would recomend printing 100 copies now and make changes as you see fit to your next order.
