Sammie,
You have some great outdoor photographs - but your port lacks variety...I would suggest you create some diverse pictures working on TFCD.

Thanks lovely - I'm actually shooting (for payment) several times a week (mainly models portfolios hence why they are mainly all fashion portraits) was just interested what hourly rate you thought more than anything as I currently charge an amount for the shoot itself and to deliver 15 edited images….£70 (around $110) but have been recently asked hourly rates by brands and commercial clients which is obviously a whole different ball game!

Love your looks Sandi - however, port needs enhancement...Also a no nudity clause diminishes your marketability. TFCD for now...

Thanks Digital Blitz, but please elaborate by what you mean.  What other types of work would you like to see in my port?

I will admit that my style is more artistic and not the norm/catalogue fashion looks.  Is this what you meant?

$70 - I think. I would diversify the port to be more marketable.
