Which one is better?

Im creating this site for a photography company, and need some input. I put together 2 quick layouts, and need your help on deciding wich one to use ( or neither ). They are supposed to be clean, simple, and professional. Any and all comments are welcome. Thanks

i like both. use the blue. but, at the same time, use the boxes and picture in the boxes with color in the picture. keep the navigation on the blue one like it is. and ... that'll look cool.

btw, were's the content gonna go?

both looks good but I would go with the first one... :D

I would mix them together.

OK. I tried to make a mix of both, and added a bit. What do you think? All comments appreciated. Thanks!

I think swensen3 looks better then 4

I also think Swensen 3 looks the bets IMO

I consulted a female friend, and she doesnt like any of the layouts. She thinks that the site is too technical looking. That the target audiance would rather see something that is more emotional and less clinical. I think she might be right :( So now im trying to come up with a way to create a "Romantic", yet professional web site. I need help. All suggestions appreciated. Thanks


edit: btw, she thought that the original site was better:

http://www.swensenphotography.com/

Im not the only one that thinks the old one should be trashed am i?:(

Thanks again

uh no. your site is way better than the original one. but go with swensen3 as opposed to 4 in my opinion. those people look way too funky without a background.

first one i like
