I have experience of working with an agency from my teen years while in my home country. I stopped modeling when I moved to the US and focused on school and main career. Now I'm getting back in the field as a freelance model for the sake of art and love for photography. Please share your thoughts and opinions. I appreciate any input. Kind regards :-) Polina Dec 02 14 01:04 pm Link Polina, I wish I could like your portfolio more than I do, but there are too many shots that are not positives: #1 Well lit but you expression is elsewhere, your hand and arm are awkwardly placed and the headdress looks out of place. You have a lovely face.  #2 This is a photographer's concept photo, not a portfolio pic for you. https://photos.modelmayhem.com/photos/1 … 9c3229.jpg #3 The same  #4 You are less than 1/3 of the photo. Your face is either overexposed or over-Photoshopped so you look plastic (that might have been the idea). Your nude breast seems out of place thus, not a plus for you. https://photos.modelmayhem.com/photos/1 … d41228.jpg #5 Sorry, upside-down faces don't appeal to me especially when I can't easily make the right-side up. Looks like you have absolutely gorgeous hair. Wish it was better lit, so I could see it. #6 Wonderful Noir shot. Who's the model?  #7 The greenish tinge and the dead stare make me believe you are supposed to be dead - with plush toys.  #8 Finally! A picture that shows your beauty, your hair and your figure. One doesn't even care that your face is partially hidden. Your pose and your expression fit the mood perfectly. <img src='http://photos.modelmayhem.com/photos/140708/05/53bbe4d5bce99.jpg' /> #9 Your shoulders and hair are hiding your neck and making it seem short as opposed to the previous picture where your neck is long. You're twisting your left arm showing your elbow. Less of a turn would have lowered your shoulder and would have looked more confident. The body position and the outfit remind me of Mae West, who was an early sex symbol. Unfortunately, this shot has you looking like you've put on weight to resemble her. She outweighed you by about 40-50 pounds. She was said to have Ooomph! (Sexual energy). More energy in your eyes would have been good. I don't mean "sexy eyes" I mean life.  #10 Lovely figure and pose. Can't see your face. From what I can see of it, a very nice expression.  #11 I should like this picture. Your smiling, we can see your face. There's just something stiff about it. The tulle is bunched and not arranged attractively. You've got 3 or more skin colors on different parts of your body. Not sure about your back leg position. Your front arm is cut off and then the detached hand under your leg. <img src='http://photos.modelmayhem.com/photos/140424/05/535901928d285.jpg' /> #13 Gorgeous green eyes (we can finally see the color), great red hair, porcelain skin - on an upside-down face.  #14 Who is that woman and why is she in your portfolio?  #15 Lovely, simple portrait, just wish there was more light on your face.  You are a beautiful woman. If you want to make Art, there must be passion and you need to express it. With your eyes, your pose, your attitude. Look up Ingrid Bergman, Sophia Loren, Audrey Tautou,, Deborah Kerr, Audrey Hepburn. You need better photographers. Look at the portfolios of your MM friends and those who tagged you. There's talent there. By the way, your English is fine. I saw no grammatical or spelling errors in your profile. A major accomplishment on this site and on the Internet in general. I wish you all the best and come back with more pictures. Dec 02 14 09:11 pm Link Polina wrote:
