domain naming advice please

[10Der]

Hello,

I am going to set up a website.
It is for showcasing photography works.

which sounds better?

www.rickyphoto.com or www.rickyphotography.com

Questions
Is shorter better?
Does "photography" denotes photography services of a photographer better than "photo"?
Does "photo" sounds like it is for a photo developing or photographic product shop like AP or CP?

Please advise.

I prefer short one...just my personal preference

I prefer the first one, sounds a bit more professional. Also photo implies a singular image where as photography implies your personal portfolio. Just my thoughts.

Anyway I think a shorter one is better... easier to remeber as well as type.
