Very nice!

I would reduce the amount of white space between your masthead and content. On a smaller screen the user sees very little of your content without scrolling. On your "menu" pages you should try to avoid scrolling altogether if at all possible.

Matt,

It looks good, but I'd suggest some simple changes in the portfolio section...

The biggest issue I have is that it takes 3 clicks to get to the images. perhaps something less spartan after the initial click to whet one's appetite? I'm thinking small thumbnails representing each area, but not the entire catalogue.

For example, as soon as I click on 'portfolio', I expect to see an example or some graphic immediately. Any small token here will work.

Otherwise, I do like the clean lines and feel.

Oh yeah - your work is great!

Well, one can't see the images unless one passes on a referring URL. The visitor's type of firewall protection and browser configuration will have an effect on that. Do you really need your hotlink protection scheme so locked down that you must decline all empty referers?

I like it, its simpe and sinple is good!

however it seems like there is a whole lot of whitespace, I think.

Have to agree with Lookout. The only thing I could see on your page beside the backgound was a little text.
