Nothing that we give our clients is untouched, there is just different levels of touching.

95%+ are simple adjustments in Lightroom. Things like white balance, contrast, saturation etc. The rest we bring into photoshop for a little extra work.

Nice - did you design the site yourselves or use a template?

Looks good only thing I have noticed so far is on the wedding package pricing pdf- the diamond package shows no price next to it. Other than that looks very nice.

I used a template from these guys...
winkletwebdesign

Not the most user friendly thing I've ever come across but the price was right.

Thanks for the tip on that. I've seen several people use templates from them, but never knew where they were. I need to set up a good photo website, and I like their templates.

Good job on your site, btw.

I genuinely like your site. It's easy to navigate, it has all the right information, and it showcases you work beautifully.

I like it. Simple to navigate, effective. Two things I don't like:

1) auto-music. I can't stand it. If, however, you fade it in and make it super easy to find the mute button, that helps. Looks like you've done that.
2) I don't like the expanding circle screen wipes. It feels a little cheap and hard - like Star Wars screen wipes. I know it's used everywhere, but a fade-out/fade-in is much more pleasing to me.

there you go. Great images!
