I don't like the blue font. Other than that, it looks nice.

I wondered about that too, it almost matches the web site, which is what the pictures are also, the left banner on the site. Will have to double check that color.

Your contact info and all that information should be in a easy to read font. You really should not use a stylized font for that stuff.

Just my input. =)

The script is very hard to read. I would advise on going with something simple - san serif font. You always want you clients to be able to read it right off the bat. Scripts defeat that purpose unfortunately :(

Less is more.

And cheaper when it comes to printing :-)

Gonna go with the masses and say I don't like the blue or font choice either. And I know it's hard to choose only one shot that represents your photography, but see first line of post.

Here's a variation going with most of the advice herte except I did use a blue font, but the same blue that is used on your website (font color). I also used a different style of cursive font just for the Company name - this is effectively your logo and should be elgant and readable. The font you used on the biz card is not the same as the one on the website. Should find one that works and be consistent with it.
This one is pretty traditional, but then that is probably your market.


PM me with your email address if you want the layered PS (CS) file.

Hope it's helpful.

It's not really the COLOR of that blue font that was bad - it was the style. Looked too much like a Microsoft WordArt object (which never look terribly good). Ken's top font change adds elegance while retaining the color.

Don't know if this is any good, but you don't need to use the www in the web address.

photo.gimmeaminute.com will also work.

I think it would look better if there was a larger margin around the text. The text looks like it is right up to the edge of the card.
