Jump over to this new website where the client was VERY specific with regards to the look and feel and menu system and let me know what you guys think. http://ancke.co.za
You will notice that you can only access the portfolio only by clicking on one of the portfolio items on the landing page.
Hi,
That's very pretty, a visual tour-de-force. It's got the hipster one-page thing, which appears to be working.
Like many hyper-visual sites, it has a certain amount of mystery meat. You have to scroll down to figure out the point of the site is, other than showing pretty pictures. Eventually you reach a portfolio, so apparently she wants to sell design services?
I'll admit I'm not crazy about the "Watch this space" bit. That's like a modern day version of the picture of the construction worker with "Under Construction". It seems unfinished, and if I saw that, I'd never come back.
You have "filed under" at the bottom of the page. You'll want to clean that out. 🙂
I think it could use some SEO attention, too. Not too much to latch onto there. Single page sites often suffer from this, although things can be done to help with that. (that's a larger topic, and out of scope here).
I'd also probably encourage a stronger "call to action" than just displaying a contact form.
Sorry about the bad news. I feel your pain - my clients also want visuals, and don't really have a sense of what to use for content beyond that. In any case, a very attractive site to look at, nice visual design job.

Thanks David
LOL... it is funny. I agree with you on the "Watch this space" part. That is only there because I am still waiting for her little resume or piece about herself. This is only temp. Thanks for the honesty.
The rest of your comments have great value and merit and I will surely address that in time.
Thanks a lot!
Grafix,
I'm glad you took that in good stride!
Keep up the good work,
Dave
