come on by and let me have it. thanks the only way we ever know what we are doing wrong and how to make things better is by someone on the outside to look in. thank you for being mean and honest.

First.
Make sure you punctuate correctly.

"I am a modeling for a little while, also been acting for a long time."

This doesnt make sense. 'I have been modeling for a little while...' would be better.

Capitalize your "I's"



Your choice for avatar is horrible. Just because you have your ass to the camera does not make it a good picture.

This doesnt make sense, its too small and low quality.

I wish you would do more like this. This is gorgeous.

I cant put into words how much I hate this.
Horrible lighting. Blech pose. The presents are wrapped like shit and arent lit well. And youre on a sheet next to a blue wall. Woot.

https://modelmayhm-2.vo.llnwd.net/d1/photos/090216/18/499a23771e4fd_m.jpg
Why the hell would you put this in your port? There are red lines from you sitting on something, stretch marks and hair. Youll get tons of comments because its a close up of an ass. Not because its a good photo.

Horrible location, lighting and uncomfortable.

This is my favorite. Great tones, lighting and editing.

There needs to be more light. Some difference in tones, because the model looks grey here.

The boobs in your avi look weird. You should make your models look the best they can.

I do not like this one. The shadows end abruptly on your face making it look over processed. Also, your hand and feet are cut off.

https://modelmayhm-1.vo.llnwd.net/d1/photos/070829/22/46d63614bbf57_m.jpg
Hand cut off, and you lost your other one completely.

I dont like the choice of duotone for this one. Lost a lot of detail, and the perspective makes you look really short.

This is gross. The hand, pudge, face and no neck make for an aweful photo.

Pick one photo from an outfit.

Grossly Mature

Did you look at her face or her hands? Why would you post this, and then why would you use it as your avatar? She looks like she has down syndrome.

Youre just a guy who wants to take pictures of sexy women, thats the vibe Im sure everyone gets. Your pictures are not creative, nor are they that great. Its a port full of pictures that have already been done.

Stop shooting women in the same bed with the same rose petals. Its old.

Overexposed, no expression, and it makes your body look disporportionate.

Does not belong in your port.

This could be your best photo, and probably still is, but the blemishes in the background need to be cleaned up in photoshop.

Do not capitalize "To" in your port.

You dont have a bad port.

I would advise picking one picture from a particular model and outfit.

I do not enjoy the overwhelming amount of the awkward sized headshots that you have in your port.
Your photography in itself is okay. But you should get rid of this

Your first four photos are all same face. If you choose to keep these photos separate them so it is not as apparent.
You have too many headshots anyway.
If you want to be professional keep your Facebook photos on Facebook.

This pose is awful. Your arm blocks your eye in an awkward place. Your hand looks like a nubbin and Im looking at your brain.

But good work. Your port was diverse enough I had to go back to your portfolio to make sure you were the model and not a photographer.

You will find yourself hardpressed to find a photo with a blown out white background that actually looks good.

There is nothing appealing about this photo other that the fact of two naked women.

You have some great concept shots.

I love Martin, but these do nothing for you or your port

Pick one of this series
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/p … 6#22423956
I would pick this one as there is a sense of contact

This photo belongs more in the bio section than your port

I understand the use of such photos, but since it lacks seriousness and quality, I would post it on your actual bio page than in the port.

You pay for your account. Use the html code to organize your bio better. Most don't want to read a novel. I would suggest utilizing lists/bullet points

Your port is overrun with bad photos. I wont take the time to point out every one. But a good way to narrow them down would be to only choose the best photo from a shoot.

Any photos that looks like your boyfriend wouldve taken, take down
