You need to let the CSS control the color and size. Remove all the font tags from the description like this.

<html>
<div class="myTitle">
Behind the Shutter
</div> <!-- closes myTitle div -->

<div class="myPhoto">
<img src="http://mjmphotos.smugmug.com/photos/449552303_2uivL-X3.jpg" width="225" height="340">
</div> <!-- closes myPhoto div -->

<div class="myText">
<p>Hello, my name is Michael McAtee and I am a photographer based out of Cherry Hill, NJ. I have over 5 years of experience. I specialize in sports photography, both action and Team and Individual. I shoot all type of sports, both indoor and outdoor. I will travel to shoot in Eastern PA, all of NJ and parts of DE. In addition to sports I also shoot pet photography, event photography, portraits, both onsite and in my studio.
</p>
<p>My philosophy regarding photography is all about capturing the moment as well as the emotion surrounding the moment, I believe this is what raises my work above others.
</p>
<p>I spend time before each shoot discussing with each client exactly what it is they expect from the shoot. I also put a lot of emphasis on the processing of the captures to make sure that each and every shot is nothing less than 100% of what the client expects.</p>
<p>I shoot only with state of the art photography equipment to help ensure that my equipment doesn’t get in the way of capturing those special moments and gives me the ability to concentrate on each individual client's needs during a shoot.
</p>
<p>If you would like to contact me with any questions please feel free to call 609-504-0352

or email me <a href="mailto:mike@splitsecondphotos.com">
