I made the plunge and went Flash using pre-built templates.

I would like to know what you think: images selections, fonts, music, etc...

The site looks great, but I find it really annoying to have music on by default. Especially if I'm at work and my speakers are turned up too loud. :) The "Edmond Bollo Photography (214) 385 1671" tag seems to be out of place. It fits for some pics, but it gets partially hidden in others. Maybe you can move it to the right of your menu, or on the upper right side, outside of the image frame. Same issue with the "About Us", "Pricing", and "Contact Us" pages. It's difficult to read due to the dark text on a dark image.

Oh, and it doesn't work on an iPhone, but that's not your fault. I'll send an email to Steve Jobs about that.

You may also obtain a thorough video review of your web site by a professional wedding photographer at Pro Photo Business Forum. Aric's been in the business for over 20 years and has a highly successful studio in Houston. His reviews are awesome and free.

Lol! Thanks Scott.
Don't send that email out yet. There is a option to have a mirrored iPhone site for a fee. I'm just cheap and haven't purchased it yet.
When I start getting booked solid, I will... So for now, tell your iPhone to hang tight...

I appreciate the comments. I will have to play around with the fonts or change the template as I can't directly move object around the pages.

I just wanted to say nice site ... very eye catchy.

The only thing that bothered me ... are your fonts. They become hard to read infront of some of your background pics.

Example:
- your special offer page ... the words overlap to the shoulder of the woman.
- your pricing page ... the words at the bottom of the scroll get jumbled with the bell in he picture behind.

Other than that ... again Nice site.
