I agree that the logo hover is kind of annoying to the eyes. I like the background, my only complaint is that the nav bar is a little boring, and the text seems too small/doesn't fit right with it. I do like the content section, though.
Thanks all, I just did that to see if it would work. As for the nav, I was in the process of fixing it. It used to work fine, but the link was the text, and not the actual list item.
You could have equal spacing between each menu item. Right now, 'Home' doesn't seem to be aligned to the left either and I would work on the type. The last thing I would do is give more space between 'Social Media' and 'Partners' (although I wouldn't use "Partners" since that may look to be as if you and Wordpress are doing business together).
@Odd_E But instead of giving the list item a width, you could just use margin-right: 50px; or something. This way it aligns the menu to the grid. Also, you really don't have to use a table for your footer content. Perhaps you could just list Wordpress and MT logo's on the right side of the footer?
Edit: I just caught this. If you're going to list your social media profiles in the sidebar, there's no reason to have it in the footer.
Your site theme and design should emphasize what you're about. You say you're a photographer but as a first time site viewer I wouldn't believe it as there are 0 pictures on the landing page. Web design...hard to really tell because your theme is black and grey with really not much else on it. Do you have a logo? Any background pictures? Demonstration that you grasp some knowledge of web design beyond color tweaks of a basic Wordpress theme?
Not my intention to sound harsh, but just trying to offer some guidance on how to counter those cons that @schmotty said.
I agree with theacefes, I like the site it's clean but I think it could be more descriptive. When I visit a homepage of somone I want to instantly find out what the webpage is about and how to navigate it. The first thing I saw was the logo which is just a word I can't pronounce, then I try to look at the content and that's just a bunch of tests (which I'm sure your going to change but I'm just saying that what happens currently). Also Like a few others noted that there isn't any pictures, Pictures really help me to feel more comfortable in a site. It could be anything from a nice graphic describing the Pro's of working with you or simply a picture of you, anything like that would be great.
Sorry I've probably put down your site too much, I really do like the fonts for the headings of the articles! Overall it does look very professional and well put together! Just needs somthing to make it different then some wordpress theme you downloaded. I do like the about me page you got, I almost feel that should be the front page.
@theacefes I see what you're trying to see, but one point out of all of that. I made this design myself, there was no "tweaking" of any other sites. It was mostly trying to learn the innards of a Wordpress site. As for pictures, I realize I have none, I just don't really have content yet.
@MrBrightside that word you "can't pronounce" is my name, so thanks. It's pronounced like my username. I do really need to add content, but this site is definitely still in its infancy.

Thanks in advance. :-)
Nice work!
I agree with the comments above, especially about the hover state of the logo - that's gotta go.

Cons:
I realized those cons, but how could I fix that?
