Gallerific Theme load problem! Can anyone tell me why?

Hi!

http://www.louisephotos.com/ – using the Galerific theme.

Can someone please tell me why this is loading very slowly on any page that has an image on it. It’s not the resize script as I have tried multiple scripts such as timthumb and and turned the scripts off and still I get the slow load.

Firebug is telling me it takes 9 seconds to load! But I don’t know why, I have never come across a problem like this before

Any help is much appreciated.

p.s I have tried contacting author but I think he’s too busy!
