    The design is decent. It's a bit dark for me, but that is simply a personal preference. I slightly agree with the review above regarding the bloody, vampire feel. It might not appeal to the average woman. I might try to add some contrast to the slider images by implementing a bit more white into them.

    I do not see a sitemap page, or privacy policy / terms / conditions page. These are both crucial for SEO and safeguarding your business against any small legal fines.

    The "Stalk Me" is creative, but again, I'm not sure this would appeal to women. Some of them may be persuaded to not click on your social links simply due to your choice of words.

    The portfolio thumbs are nice, but I could not click to enlarge them, or view their information, what services were used, etc. Details like these are good for someone that is seriously considering your company. They will want to gather as much information on your capabilities as possible, with the information that you display on your website.

    Last thing.

    Your image names need to be changed to reflect what the images are. I saw a ton of images named "thumb-2" or "image-1.jpg" and etc. These image names, along with the alt tags will greatly assist in your SEO plan.
