I am looking to have a very simple website, that is easy to use.

Please help me by giving me suggestions about how to make my website more user friendly, and keep it as elegant as possible.

Any comments are welcome.

Thanks!

    I am also not a fan of Filmstrip mode, but that's maybe just me.

    Know where on your site does it tell people what part of the world are you located? where do you physically work? I did see very small on your blog banner where you are from... anyway should be prominently displayed on your site, as well as an explanation on how far you are willing to travel for what price? other than that, looks good!

    No contact means?
    I must have missed it but, I did not see ANY means of contacting you....
    either email, phone, or ?

    Did you mean to leave that out?

    Also noticed you appear to be located in Florida. Are you anywhere near
    Pinellas County?

    Otherwise, the site is looking very nice. It did take quite a while to load the first time visiting.... I'm not on a T1 but my cable connection is reasonably fast.

    I like the site, and it was pretty fast, but I agree that the filmstrip format is not the best. I like the Smugmug format - it gives a quick view of lots of pix. I'd like the filmstrip format better if it worked backward from the way it does - clicking the right button and having the pix slide in the other direction is counterintuitive. But that's a smugmug issue, not yours.

    The photo booth looks like a cool idea for weddings and parties.

    Nice site! Information is readily available for your customers, pictures are easily viewable and it's extremely easy to navigate. I love the SmugMug theme!

    I would rather see a dark backgroud rather than the white - I think it enhances photos better - they pop more and look more crisp.

    The scrolling in the galleries is distracting to me - it's also a bit slow/jerky when clicking on a photo(I'm using a good WiFi signal) to view below scroll ribbon. I'd stay on the site longer if I could see all the pics in a thumbnail image and click to make it bigger.

    I would like to know where you are from and how far you'd travel to do an event or wedding. I googled 'photogapher, oregon' and you weren't listed anywhere on the first 10 pages. If you coded the page title with what's below, you'd get on the first page of google when anyone used the search criteria that I did above.

    Good luck in your endeavor - building a site is tough!
