The cool thing with a website with full background pictures is the editing part of the said pictures. Here's a quick comp showcasing some of the said backgrounds after edit. To give you an idea of the alteration level, here's the original picture of the mixing board close-up in the center.
You also have to watch the level of contrast of the pictures in order for the text that'll be overlaid on them to stay readable.
Looking good! I'm getting a 1950's vibe from this. I see that the horizontal white lines are much heavier than the vertical ones. I don't know if that's on purpose, but it's throwing off the clean grid composition for me.
I'm working with large photo backgrounds on a client's site right now, and I agree. Watching the contrast in the photos exactly where you need the text can be tricky!
@Simon H. Oh, okay, I thought they were all on a single page. I really like the images ... they're a perfect complement to the logo. Really nice brand development so far.

@Jeff This is just a quick comp of all the individual photos so far. Each image is one full background.
