I have both Parlour and Lady palm indoors, one each side f the room. Currently the Lady palm is closest to the a sliding glass door with plenty of indirect light. The Parlour palm is approximately 6 feet away under a window with limited light but does get light from the same sliding glass door. I'm wondering if I should leave it as is or switch them around based upon light needs? Thank you

They both look good!  I think your current arrangement is best - my experience with Chamaedorea elegans (Parlor Palm) is that they do fine with limited light and they don't seem to need much water either.  The Rhapis excelsa (Lady Palm) does require more water - don't let it dry out or it will quickly decline.  Hopefully your medium is well-draining.  :)
