Hmm, well I think there is a good reason why we don't put the date on the photos. As photographers we really aren't interested in showing any sort of 'evolution' in our work. I used to have an active 'blog' on my site, but after some technical difficulties with it I've reconsidered even having it at all. I am primarily an advertising photographer and it doesn't really serve any good purpose to try and 'get close' to my readers in a personal sense. Clients need to see a photographers work and judge them based upon that. Personal comments, or a sense of 'evolution' or growth isn't the image you necessarily want to project. You need a sense of consistency, strength and uniformity. A sense of evolution implies a state of flux and change. That's something that clients and ad-agencies are DEFINITELY not interested in.

just looking at your portfolio... i'm def. not professional but can I make an advice just like this? if I were you I will change the "welcome" picture...
anyway there're some good works on your site... and I like the girl lying on the "desert" ground with a yellow dress (would be perfect for the welcome page...)
and same for the beauty section : there're very good photos, imo...
one question to all photogrpahers : why don't you put the year and where it's from on your website sometimes?! to see the evolution and where you're publishing...
