I am Austyn. Male model for 5 years or so. I would love to get better. My photos are nice but we are going for great.

So please comment on my portfolio here or on my Instagram. Have any thing you'd like me look at? PM me. Thank you!

These are pretty good. Keep them in your port:

Get rid of the rest. They are snapshots.
This one is no good either, unless you're auditioning for Honcho Magazine, which I guess is not your intention, but I could be wrong: https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/40732559


Best of luck!

So close, but not quite.
Model is very square to camera
Everything in an image is important; the thing that jumps out at me is the crease in the backdrop just above models right shoulder
When you show the knees in an image I really expect to see feet too.

You seem bored, your expression is lifeless

Great smile, again if you show me the knees I would like to see feet too.
Eyes do not seem like they are in sharp focus

Nice casual photo but wish your eyes were looking at the camera

As a model you have a great look, try shooting with other photographers to add more dimension in your portfolio.

If you keep the 4 best images, your portfolio will be stronger, agree with Jorge Cramer, only show your best work

I wish you well
