It's obvious you took time with the details on this concept (particularly with the contact form). Little things make all the difference. I really like the soft gradients, choice of colors, and your use of negative space. It's a very attractive, open design.
One thing I've never been partial to is full body photos. Perhaps the photo would be more appropriate on an 'about me' page, which doesn't have to be part of your main nav if you don't want to change that. I do like that you're not trying to look conventional though - the jeans and T make a clear distinction that you're a creative guy, not a corporate guy. That's a good thing. :)
Overall a big improvement from the first concept. Score!

I'm gonna think about the full body photo. Thanks for the feedback. It's very nice.
