Please do not mistake a blunt answer with harshness. Sometimes it's best to make a direct but brief comment.

I never saw your site. The second I heard the forced music, I closed my browser.

You will find many comments here in this forum, in other forums, and in many articles across the net that will advise you that (overall) most people do not like forced music on websites. It is considered one of the top design mistakes.

I know most people have higher res monitors, but on my 1024x768, I cant see everything in the browser window. Your name at the top is cut off and the thumbnails at the bottom are partially cut off. And just as im looking at it again, your name has shot over to the right but is cut off at the v in david. Also the background image clashes slightly with the font colour of you navigation. Maybe a cream-type block colour for the bg?

The text is pretty small too, but I am running at 1600x1200. Also, if I was looking for pricing information my first stop would not likely be the "Investing?" page. I understand what you were going for but it doesn't quite make sense (looking for critiques was the only reason I wound up there to begin with).

And alas, I can never last very long on a Flash site. :o

Flash? I didn't notice it the first time because I clicked off the music so fast. Flash = non-optimized SEO.

I like it. The only thing that bothered me was having to click on thumbnails to look at each picture. Possibly consider making your galleries flash slideshows. Not everyone here likes them, but I think most of your customers would. Also, consider posting a link to your pricing. You mention print packages, but I think most people would appreciate seeing the options upfront. Good work though, and good luck with it.
