My opinion - as someone learning to work with models, no more - is that you've been blessed well enough facially in the genetic shuffle to stand a chance of getting work. And you're the right height and build and have cut abs.

But

1. You need to try being shot with more than one facial expression. Really.

2. You don't need four upper body shots wearing the same jacket. With the same expression.

3. You need a good head shot. In focus. Better exposure and closer to show details. Without irritating chin hair - stubble, yes. Wisps, no.

4. You need full length shots that your build accurately. So skinny jeans and tight tee and no funny perspective distortion. Rather than baggy everything and lots of distortion.

5. MORE THAN ONE EXPRESSION!!!

It seems like virtually every new model needs to be told the same thing: Do a lot of TFP with the best photographers you can find and you'll learn tons from the really good ones.

The problem is most really good photographers won't do TFP. It would help if you tried your own ideas with bad photographers because you will graduate much faster from redundant head shots and probably help the photographer grow as well.
