Okay everyone.. *gulps!*

I've been doing a lot of hard work to get this site to the point where I think it's good enough to show. I did link it in the older 'show your website' thread, but now I think it's actually somewhat optimized for SEO and I've added some important information, like, how to get a session!

I've made PDF forms for things like my session information sheet and studio policies. Right now, the only one that's uploaded is my pricing guide as a JPG, because noone wants to take the time to download that. Do you think that putting the studio policies, etc, as uploaded files will be useful?

Ok I will take a stab at helping out with my input.

Home Page/Latest - Some images have a caption and some dont, I would either make them all have or not have captions

Proofs - You right side contact information has ((feather))-photography by Jacom Allison (however Allison falls to the next line, looks off to me). Now that I am on that page there is no way for me to go anyplace else without hitting the back button on my browswer. You should have your top options on this page still

Pricing - The text in your image is a bit light, I can not read the text at the bottom of the page. Also might give a link to a pdf version that is printer friendly.

Otherwise things look good. I would like to see a gallery type page other then the Latest screen but thats just me, I like to see lots of samples when looking for a photographer.

Nice site. My one recommendation would be to add somewhere on your front page what type of photography you specialize in. I did notice on the browser tab of the front page (I assume Latest is your main page? That kind of confused me) you have labeled, "Portrait & Family Photography for Military Families in Yokosuka Japan". I think it would be nice if you had that on your main/front page as well. Just my 2 cents.

Good luck! I'm finalizing my site as well.

Thank you for the suggestions!

The 'proofs' page is currently kicking my butt because there doesn't seem to be anything I can actually do to change it. It's built on ShootProof, which I like, but can't be customized, which I don't like.

Much to my irritation, I can't add anything else to the front page. Might be time to set up a ProPhoto blog...
