I have a cafe and have prints hanging... guess you have to take into consideration the atmosphere and color scheme of the cafe and choose prints that will stand out yet not clash with their surroundings. You have some amzaing work alot of which will probably sell. I might choose as a start:

People who buy photos often seem to like scenery or animals. Here's my newbies choices(and as you can tell I haven't figured out to get the actual thumbnails in here yet :(

thanks everyone!, I still haven't desided but i think im going to go with a "series"... like 4 macros, 4 lanscapes.. or maybe 2 of each.. but im not going to put up any portraits cause I can't see anyone buying a photo of someone they have no connection to (at least I wouldn't). I will have some business cards there with my website for that.

What's the atmosphere of the coffeshop? Picking images that match would probably help with sales.

its a "darker" kind of place so im thing some color things will really pop... Im trying to image what others would hang on their walls, im thinking some butterfly pics, lanscapes like my ocean sunsets, and maybe animal pics for a kids room...mmmm.. also mom told me if I have some shots that relate the chances of someone buying 2+ are higher.

Where I was going with this was to try and match the images to the clientele. If it's a family place then the bright coloured images and kid friendly images would work. However, if it's more trendy then images that reflect the trendiness would probably work better. Just a thought.

The owner of the coffeshop may be able to guide you there.
