    I really like the design, and they certainly have a lot of quality photos to choose from. Here would be my suggestions:

    1. I would make the third level navigation start high enough that it does not overlap onto the main image.

    2. There seem to be inconsistencies in the spelling of their name. The logo has a K with no period but the footer has a period. Throughout the text, sometimes the K has a period and other times it does not.

    3. I happened to end on the portfolio page, and would suggest removing the second image down. The man and women do not look happy. I would consider moving the screen shot you show on this review as the default image.

    4. On the portfolio page and other places where it is used, I would replace the plus and minus symbols used to move the gallery with something more traditional like bold arrows.

    5. I would make the products and services page actually display their products. Then make the button that opens the PDF indicate what it actually is. Right now I feel like I should be going to a shopping cart. Perhaps "Download PDF of our Services" when clicked have it open in a new window.

    6. The news page feels a little cluttered, perhaps some more spacing between the two columns or less artistic graphics.

    Overall I like the design, and would certainly select them as a photographer for my wedding.

      Great detailed comments Shane, much appreciated. The products page is something like a filler at the moment, since the client wanted it up as soon as possible, but the idea is to actually have the section display their services and products. Thanks again!
