i dont know if it is safari, but your prices are not lining up, they are outside the table you have set up.

tlc - yeah it's not configured for safari. only firefox (and ie7). But thanks for looking.

BTW - I like the 'bloody london' thing :) For me, everytime I am in London the quote that pops into my mind is from the Guy Ritchie film Snatch:

"London?"
"Yeah London"
"London??"
"YEAH London! You know, fish, chips, cup o'tea, bad food, worse weather, Mary ****ing Poppins LONDON!"

I love that :)

you might want to configure your site differently then. i think firefox users are a minority - at least according to my stats they are.

that's funny about the quote -

tlc - thanks - I should have said preferred browser is firefox, but is also config'd for ie6 and 7. Safari is less than the others I think- I run a mac system but use ff myself.

Maybe I missed it, but I couldn't figure out what country or city you are in? No address. Why would I book a sitting fee if I don't know where you are?

OK, here are some of my comments:

* Have some small text indicating to "click the picture to continue" just below the image when you first enter the site
* For a cleaner looking layout, don't indent each paragraph in your About or Prices sections
* Use white text instead of grey (I find the grey very hard to read)
* The blue highlighted words in the About and Prices sections are annoying

I would put a little more in the about us. People feel funny about booking someone online without a known physical location.

Very nice looking site, but some other comments....the gallery doesn't seem to be segmented into different types of shots or services. You explain your services but it is too open. You seem to be offering people/portrait shots, but there are many different areas for this. wedding, family portrait, baby, graduation/school, model portfolio, studio, location, etc.

I think you need to define your strengths and experience or show shot examples in the catagories you cover.

Thanks for all your points. Am looking at the site now and trying to figure out what changes to make based on your suggestions :). Thanks again!

Other opinions would also be appreciated :)
