  I like it.
  
  One thing...it seems like girls are more into senior photos than guys (just from looking around on here). Do you have any girl photos that you can put on there as well? Maybe to show the ladies what they might expect?

  I think you are wasting too much real estate on the beach shot which could be better put to use with a bigger pic that pertains to what and who your trying to sell to and would create a more impressive impact.
  
  None of the types of work you specify relate to landscape work so I would relate the pic more closely to the product.
  People are not bright. I think many will take one look at that and think your selling greeting cards, holidays or something else other than photography of any type.

  
  Yea, I posted this on another one of my photograhy forums and that seems to be the general consensus. I just used the beach pic because it gave me alot fo room to work with. Thanks for the advise.

  Besides the beach comment above, I think it might help to have more variety of people instead of one person.

  Since you asked I don't think this works at all.
  Find a picture of a girl at the prom looking great having a great time, or picture of a group of kids....

  No worries, I've decided that I'm a bit out of my league here and have hired a graphic designer to make it for me.

  I definitely agree with the above...
  
  1. Get a couple shots of girls, unless you're trying to market this to only guys.
  
  2. Having pictures of only one person makes it seem like you have only done one photo shoot.
  
  3. Bigger portrait pictures, but keep the beach as the background.
  
  Good design otherwise. Good luck!

  Using photography to pay for engineering school is a bad business plan.
