    I love that homepage image, it makes the site instantly intriguing, which I assume is the idea. Very nice grid, color scheme and typography. My only criticism would be the organization of styles.css and prettyPhoto.css. It really doesn't matter if you choose single line or multi-line, but you should use one or the other. Additionally, it is important to maintain a consistence indent for easier scanning and readability. While this has no impact on your typical client, you may loose business from tech-savvy clients who look under the hood prior to making a decision. More importantly, well organized code saves you time and headaches. Johnathan Christopher talks about creating style guides for your code on his blog (http://mondaybynoon.com/2010/03/29/establishing-style-guides/). Overall I think this site is top quality.
