I just finished my website for our (seasonal) wedding video company.

www.mackinacvideoproductions.com

Any constructive criticism?

Hopefully it kicks off so far we have invested in:
2 HVX200's
4 16gb P2 cards
60gb P2 Store (thanks to DVXuser rileymorton)
2 sennheiser lav systems
2 rode shotguns
Redrock M2 (thanks to DVXuser Grenville)
Nikon primes
Bogen Tripods
2 Pelican 1650 cases
4 DVXuser batteries
Mac Pro
Mac HD Cinema Display
DYMO discpainter

...in the past month...

...mind you we will be carting these things around on bicycles all summer.
 
Running late, so I'll just get right to the point:

1. The opening page isn't centered, and I would recommend encoding that video for internet streaming (so the controls are available)

The layout looks OK, but again, nothing is centered.

The pics on the top look like clickable buttons, but their not. Kind of frustrating. Also, the size difference in them throws off the composition of the page. Also number two: the darker color (on top) should continue across the entire page, with everything centered inside.

Add a border to the picture on the main page.

Add a border to every picture throughout the site.

To be perfectly honest, the site really doesn't have that "pro" look to it. You're using some very high end gear (for weddings, at least), and you've spend a lot of money already. I'd dish out another couple hundred dollars to have the site made by a pro. With just a basic site like that, you could probably get someone to do it for under 100 bucks.

On another note, are you planning on using the Redrock on weddings? I also do weddings, but there's no way in hell I could pull off a 35mm adapter with the run and gun environment.

Don't mean to sound harsh... just trying to help.
 
It's a little off centered.
An image on the FAQ page doesn't load in the bottom left.
The clickable button thing, I thought they were clickable =)
Menu size is a little.. out of order? It's meant to be like that I'm sure.

Otherwise I like it, the grey / black dark colour kinda theme is good. The artowrk on the 3 images at the top i think are great. Very informative.

(Thats alot of nice equiptment by the way, congrats)
