This is my second site I have done using a Rocket Theme template. My customer is arguably one of the better photographers in the greater NY area. He wanted simple and classy while being able to manage his own galleries. Phoca worked real well for the galleries (sending donation soon) and this template...all I can say is WOW!! I still have a few things to finish up with it, but really would like some input to see what you guys think.

I used Phoca gallery for the galleries and Phoca Guestbook.
I also used RokCandy. The individual module images are just simple HTML. - "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." - Thomas Jefferson

- Is it me or do the logo and word over the images look fuzzy?

Very nice, beautiful photography, talented photographer.
I agree with John however. I think what he is seeing is font / typography style. Totally up to the client of course, but I feel artistically it lends itself to edgy, instead of classy. Again, choice.
On client management, does the gallery allow for front-end upload or does the client login and upload from the back-end?
Again, kudos! -

He can do either, but being that he is a bit on the techno-challenged side. I have him uploading from the front side of the site.
As far as the "Fuzzy" I never really noticed it before, it is the drop shadow effect on the text. - "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." - Thomas Jefferson

The site looks great! I have to agree though, that the header logo looks a little fuzzy, and should probably be re-done.
I phoca galleries look awesome - did you use a theme for that? I just downloaded phoca, and that's how I want mine to look :cheesy:
The site looks clean and to the point - to my eyes joomla sites often look to cluttered and busy, but you have taken care of that.

I am in no way affiliated with Phoca but I'm a big fan of Jan's work.
Make a small donation, say $10.00-15.00, and request the code to remove the back link to his site.
You don't want any links on the site that direct customers from yours (your client's). - Thanks,
jim
