#0?

Thanks, The most positive feedback I've gotten so far have been from the second image in the first set. But I'd love some more opinions.

It's all a matter of taste...just my two cents!

the second set does nothing for me...

First set #1+2 but not 3
Second set #1
Third set #1 because #2 has duckface
Other pics? no. But if you must choose one of them go with the 18+ because your body rocks!

The first set I'd add #1

I don't love anything in the second group, and would skip those.

The 3rd pair I'd choose #1

The last 2 linked images are okay, but you have better. I'd skip adding those too.

Wow! What a beauty! Sexy stuff you have there.

From the first set I like the first one even though the crop is horrible your rear is cut off and there is way too much window in the frame, plus your face is obscured a bit. But your body looks great in the shot.

I like the first one in the second set.

My favorite is the 18+ image. Everything is composed nicely and the lighting is  beautiful

the "18+ image" you look sexy as usual, but it looks kinda cheesy quality.
lighting is flat. no post work.
not professional like some your other work.

I'm not going to go over the great input you all ready have but I will say this. Yiu have great look: gorgeous eyes draw you in right from the start. Beautiful face and hair, a killer form and you seem to have a great personality: here is what you should do, find as many good photographers as can do shoot after shoot and soon you will find yiur unique self. Then you will be able to put together a portfolio that will attract your type of client. You will have no problem finding work.

first set: first one, maybe the third one as well (don't really like the playboylogo on your underwear for this type of shoot)

second set: /

third set: second one.

none of the ones you linked

a lot of the pictures are definitely alright, don't get me wrong... but that's mostly because you are so incredibly stunning, not because it's a good picture per se.

nice job!

Not a fan of the Playboy logo - adds kind of a cheese factor.

I like the 1st in the 1st set and 1st in the 3rd set. The others not so much IMO.

I think your selection of what is in your current portfolio is great:)

less is more- i think the first series is best, and the first of the three is the best of those. other than that i wouldn't add anything. bunny

18+  http://25.media.tumblr.com/a94bf9b56513 … 10_250.jpg

Points deducted for hand bra.  There are many elegant ways to cover your boobs without doing that.



You are very pretty, but these pictures don't do you justice.

EDIT:  on second look, the second one from the first set, where you're facing away from the blind looks good, but would look even better with the blind cropped out.  It distracts from you and your pose.

If by 'grown up' you mean 'sexy', then they all look pretty okay.  I'm with everyone else there ... second photo, first set.  I actually like the blinds.  But if I'm honest, you look like you're trying too hard in most of them, and trying too hard isn't sexy.

If by 'grown up' you mean 'adult', then I don't like any of them.  You're much more obviously 18 in these images than in some of your others, especially the ones with the glasses.

I can only assume it's a comfort thing, as you don't look really comfortable in a lot of these images.  Have you worked with any of these photographers more than once?  Maybe it just takes you longer to relax for them?

Second, third and last all work for me  .  .  .  attitude, and energy are the key  .  .  .  when you look like you're in control of the look, it really comes through in the images  .  .  .  nicely done  .  .  .
