Um, don't use the blue gradient background. I had to read squint to read the first three lines, which ironically are usually/should really be the more important lines.

If you must use a gradient background, use one that's a lot lighter, or use one that does not dilute any of the writings.

The tabs on top, i.e., "Home", "Gallery", etc., have white lateral sides -- are those intentional? You may want to remove those. You may also want to give more space on top and beneath those tabs, to give a cleaner feel.

Good work though. Keep it up.

yeah i agree with dalechou about the back ground bit.

with proffesional sites like that, its best to keep things simple and clear. i think u should leave the back ground white.

or you can move the images to the left and have your text on the right.

using the images as links to other sections looks tacky and unprofessional too. i would remove the text on the images.

Hmm, I changed the font and moved the images around. I plan on redoing them, but their mostly their for filler, but the employer seemed to like the idea.

Would putting text under the images look better perhaps?

For the type of business you've targeted, I think the design is well-done! It's clear, it's to-the-point, and well illustrated. Well done!
