Hello,
It's been a while ... anyways, I've finally finished this site according to the customers specs... Let me know how you feel about it.

First up, use width and height in ALL your image tags, it's very jumpy on loading.
The word "photography" across the main picture is a little hard to make out with that font and color.
The images you have as thumbnails open in their own lonely window, maybe use the pages template to load the picture in so they can click on the next one. also if someone was to send one of the pictures (send the page link) by email the person wouldnt be able to see the rest of the site - most people dont think about just taking the image name off the url.
The contact and background pages just have a grey box, maybe add a picture to them as well.
Nice clean layout, displays the same in NS7, Opera6 (as opera6) and IE5, I like it

Oh, right, I remember this one. I still think that graphic on the front page is way too complex. I would probably remove as much as possible from that page and just leave that graphic on it's own. I also tend to think that the drop shadows are a tad bit on the big side, especially on the page with the photos down the left side. Definitely make sure that you're using the same angle for all of them - the drop shadow on the business card on the contact page is in the complete opposite direction from all of the other drop shadows. Also set a stylsheet to change the default font to a nice sans-serif - that would be a huge improvement.
That navbar across the top coudl use some work - add some mouseovers to spice things up and make the text easier to read (I'm thinking that some people might have a hard time with the grey text on white, and the drop shadow blurs it even more
You might want to clean up your code a bit - I'm seeing a mix of upper case and lower case code, and some font tags here and there.
Otherwise this looks quite nice. I like the clean white look.

i enjoyed the first page it had all its alt tabs, a bit of easy navigation for me, but then i was stuck in a page with none!
The front pages loads slowly on a 56 k modem, however if the customer is happy, why worry, Just rember to put accurate sizes on height and width on as much of your site as you can!
Also in alt tags if you put nav in as well will make it a bit easier!
