Here is my regular business card. I tend to photography kids more

and hope it will attract parents... does it work? Yve<div></div>

As someone said in the other post, the text going down is not good. A potential client shouldn't have to struggle to understand something on your card. Many will toss it and move on to the next before they spend the time doing so.

Why don't you post the photos and the desired text here and we can have a competition who makes the best of it.

Yve, aside from what has already been mentioned, I would try to find a photo that has some negative (empty) space and include my text in this area. Your name across the child's back really detracts from the image IMO.

I find that 9 times out of 10 putting a photo on a business card just does not work. Simple clean design with a web address is much more effective.

I think a photo bus card can be very powerful if done right and with good design in mind, not just a good picture. If you really want to use this picture think about changing it to horizontal by using a gradient from the picture to black or some other color and put all your info in the solid color. I agree that writing on the picture doesn't usually work, if you really want to do that, you need to at least put a drop shadow or glow to set it off from the picture.
