Another Business Card

I designed this business card for the wife of a friend of mine. She's starting a photography business so we decided to implement some of her photography into the business card design. It was my first project of this kind and I wanted to see what the rest of you thought. Much like Robbie Duck's card, the design has already been finalized and put into print...but there's always room for improvement. I was worried that there was a little too much variation in the font types as well as the magenta hues in the lettering/photo borders. I also think the photo borders themselves might be excessively flamboyant compared to the rest of the design. Thoughts?

Maybe if you put this on the Critique page, more of us would see and comment on it. :-)

The photos are going to be really tiny. Are you sure they'll print well? Do you want such small samples of her work?

Even though it's small, I'd advis against using the top photo (the solo woman). She seems to be grimacing. Not a good thing. Also, think twice about images in which the subjects aren't looking out at us. That's a subtle disconnect of the emotional attachment that the presence of the photos is supposed to create with the viewer.
