I wouldn’t say the color scheme is ugly, more just flat. It just doesn’t seem to have much flavor. A couple of usability critiques:
1) The icons on the bottom I don’t feel make sense. The icon associated with graphic design a what I would expect for photography, and the corporate identity icon is a power button. I can see a connection, but it seems like a stretch.
2) The website contact form I think needs to be rethought – at least adding some borders or something. It took me a minute to figure out that those were text fields. You definitely don’t want to confuse anyone who might want to contact you.
I REALLY like your portfolio page… very good use of jquery there my friend. I feel like the portfolio navigation should be centered though, but that just might be me.
