Sorry, I like your portfolio too much - you have diversity, symmetry -  am not a fan of nudes, but they were done very tastefully... Great work!

Thanks!

not  a fan, it feels off balanced, I want to either see more of the couple, like in the surrounding area, or crop it so maybe you would see her softness against the ruggedness of him, it would make a nice juxtaposition... I dunno... it just doesnt grab me

You are good at what you do, making beautiful people look beautiful

you caught her being cute and whimsical...

i want to see a series of work from you of more clothed women, portraits, some of men... step outside your comfort zone , you are an amazing photographer... not sexy, not allure... just beautiful, and honest

are you down for the challenge?

this might have been nice had the photographer captured the window light on your face, as opposed to showing off the non essential background, your eyes focus more on the snow and crap outside the window then you

cute outfit, might have been doable, yet you have a snarl on yer face and the pose is awkward

being coy by the dumpster and crawling through the screen are interesting.... for about second... you have a look, you would do better with more simplified classical stuff like the one i commented on that i liked, id only suggest you work with different photographers

i love it, with great lighting, im a sucker for it... i like the way the dress juts out to the left...

my only complaint, and this is with the photographer , is he has sensor dust ( and is easily fixed in post ) if he removes those lil dark blotches, it will be so much better


great look... i wanna see more... push yerself outside your boundaries

you are an artist, a poet with a camera, not so much in a professional sense, you see things the way nature would intend to see them, from an outsider view...

with that being said...

the electrical tape on the boobs and furry collar shots need to go, you are too talented for cliches

you have a great look, could do some commercial print work, maybe advertise for photographers, for like headshots, or senior portrait stuff

you have amazing potential, its just none of yer images call out to me... they are just kind of " there " nothing exciting

shoot with as many photogs as you can... i want to see your images in a few months after a few more shoots

you have many stronger images... this one as an example

https://img8.modelmayhem.com/070627/02/468205a6580b4_m.jpg

the one u posted is a novel idea, it just seems too set up, like i understand the idea of it, it just seems too contrived.... it also makes you look a lot older, which is kinda interesting in a way

id use others ones before this one, like the one of you by the railing in the dress
