Bottom line: I see skills, humor and creativity in your port. Beautiful captures overall, without the need for  overly retouching. The idea is to shoot correctly exposed photos. You should add some black and white noir style sexy glamour.
Do you make my list? : yep

Thank you!

Your Skill level:  still learning
Your Work focus:  A little bit of everything
Your challenges:  Indoor lighting can improve on portraits, bw implied looks better
Your money shot:  
My likes: great deal of authenticity there
[b]My dislikes : lighting is a bit off
What to delete : heavily photoshopped with blur versus frequency separation or other techniques, this may not show on all monitors or in prints perhaps but on mine looks un naural at the area of the eye brows and eyes.
Suggestions: You generally do well, nothing earth shattering but little things always make a big difference how people will percieve your work or style.
Do you make my list? : nope

Thanks for the import, images revised.

My likes: and staircase shots in abandonment series which I did enjoy doing myself a very similar one as a blacka nd white shadow play.

As a person who once did a lengthy critique thread back when I had more time, I greatly appreciate the time you've not only into review my port but in others as well.

Have a great day.

remove redundant lingerie shots (same bra same panty)
Find good photographers

Oh ME!

First impressions:  Nothing grabs me until I notice this the only one that qualifies as fetish. The rest is facebook myspace.
Your Skill level:  Prosumer longing for a muse that does all the thinking for her.
Cropping and composition is off , model posing leaves to be desired, lighting skills : mixed feelings, color definition is  off on many photos
You gonna hate me if I say female photographers rarely can produce good sensual images because they don't know how to look at another women like a man does full of lust and with praying eyes..  Case in point below:
bothersome low key, awkward uncomfortable sitting on a hard surface where her arm obstructs the contour of her back side causing her tummy sticking up more then her chest creating an unbalance at the limit we suspect an optical distortion, the ring on finger tell us she is taken and unavailable, she  stares  to the camera like "what the hell you are looking at". Lingerie she wears is  for teenagers.
Saying this I really don't want to be mean.
Your Work focus:  glamor fetish
Your challenges:  cropping of your photos comes across as flawed
My likes:

My dislikes : out of focus and pointless
What to delete : your worst.

also, seem to me your selection of the model for a given concept is random.

Your money shot:   could be this if the tattoos on the finger was removed and beauty dish glare in her eyes didn't make her look like she had some  supernatural powers.
My likes: but like more contrasted photos plus there are no clouds there so I suspect it is edited somewhat and doesn't look natural
My dislikes : softfocus is used to avoid some hard retouch on this model
majority of color nudes don't stand out. I see some really bad "artistic" cropping that doesn't "work"
This upon close inspection it is "blur" smoothed retouch, looks out of focus.

I'm fresh and amateur and looking for direction.

You have too many of the same images with the same outfits
shot angles makes your face look bloated, just rip and redo everything
try to find good photographers to build a basic port in the field you are interested in working
include full head shot no make up and 1 full length bikini shot
in this


your skin doesn't look well.

make your nudes non trivial, pose in art style black and white
good luck to you
