What are like my top three photos? What do I need to add or is missing in my portfolio? Aug 27 20 06:58 pm Link I don't think you have a top three. Photos that show you in a good light are wildly unfocused. And because your portfolio is so full of these unfocused moments I strongly recommend starting over with focused photos. I quite liked the idea of the photo with the crown but the lack of focus in the photography is most noticeable and thus I recommend starting over. Sorry. Aug 28 20 03:11 am Link Kind of have to agree. Reboot the entire portfolio. This criticism isn't an attack on your ability to model as there are some shots that show it's definitely there, but the image quality doesn't help you stand out, and a good portion of the ones that are in focus have a very safe, portrait-y vibe as opposed to headshot feel. But this may be the whole point of your asking for the best three to begin with. Though I don't particularly love them these three would keep me interested in working with you if I were local and looking for a good model. https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/45829857 https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/45886479 https://photos.modelmayhem.com/photos/2 … 771276.jpg Love the mood, but soft focus. https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/46509130 Aug 28 20 08:52 am Link It's important for your images to be sharply focused. Your eyes especially should be crisp. On occasion, I have sharpened just the eyes and left the rest of the image alone. I like this image. It conveys your lovely personality. This is a nice concept. It's such a shame that it is so badly out of focus. [ Wonderfully playful. If only just the eyes were sharpened a bit. Forgive me but I must comment: You have images that emphazise your weight, lots of sour expressions, two with no neck, and one huge butt shot.

A few high quality images beat many so–so images. This for me shows off your eyes the best, sharp clear and mesmerizing. Down side not a fan of looking up models nose. Good pose on your part, note how hips are on angle to camera, has a slimming effect and adds dynamics to the photo. This one shows you off as a model quite well. I wish you well Sep 01 20 06:04 pm Link Most of your images are out of focus. That's not your fault. However going forward try and make sure those you show are and a good idea is to look and see if your eyes are sharp. Overall 95% of what you have is average to below average. You're beautiful and I'd suggest finding better photographers to work with. Sep 03 20 09:47 am Link Sep 05 20 01:35 am Link There are some shots where I like the pose and the wardrobe but there's a focus issue going in. I'm in southern VA and would love to work with you, but who knows when I'll be up that way. Sep 05 20 03:55 pm Link I am not so sure that everyone was correct about the focus. On the one hand, they may be correct, but on the other, it may be that the out of focus (OOF) appearance was caused by final resizing without compensating sharpening. The photos can be pin-sharp, but when they are resized, this can happen. I don't know for sure, but since they all have the same problem, that would be something to look at. Sep 07 20 06:52 pm Link Having people say to start over must be hard to hear. We can talk about building a portfolio if you like - I'm in NoVa area. Life is too short not to have fun and create.

They all look the same.Same hair same makeup same style. Do you know your market? Commercial, swimwear, fashion, lifestyle, fitness? I like the headshot on the top row right. It shows potential and it isn't;t even your strongest. Oh and loose the pink dress with the car and guy they do you no favors. No duplicate outfits. White dress, those look like you are just hanging out.Maybe that's it?You don't look like a professional model. Just a great looking girl hanging out having fun. If you want to be taken seriously great, I think you have a really good look. Keep shooting with as many photographers as you can. And get a hair and makeup person when you can. You need to change up your look people need to see your versatility Most of all have fun. Rick Oct 20 20 11:51 pm Link |
