Hi Samantha, could you let me know what impression you get from my profile text & photos? How do I come across? Who do you think I should be pitching to for paid work? Likewise for trade?
hard to get any distance on your own work when you're looking at it all the time

You wanted salty...
http://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/28829660 Why is this image here? Your port has such good imagOtes, then this, where a table crops off your foot, you're centered, and the giant flare from the wood paneling loses the image. Plus the fireplace should be on! Maybe I'm crazy because it's so listed, but to me there's others, yes, even the beardy one, that deserve that attention more so.
Otherwise that's all I got. Your port is salty and rough enough for the salty spitoon. You may enter.

Profile text is professional, yet relaxed. I like that you have an open mind on TF. I like that you listed rates in your portfolio. While some don't, as a model it can save some of us who don't have that money some time. Rates aren't bad either honestly. But as for the rates, keep them consistent with your website, or make a reason for the discount on your page.
Also, I don't like how so many photos are in your profile. My computer is a garbage machine, and many others are like me, and it will slow down loading of your page, and could lose potential clients. I'd cut it down. Plus its too much scrolling!
As for your photos, you are good enough to where I'd pay your rates. I think your best work is your editorial work, and that story telling ability could help. On Modelmayhem pitching to models is smart, but also consider pitching to make up artists/hair stylists, and designers. Never limit rates to just one party.

Thanks! And I totally agree with you.
It's still up because I'm working on getting more glamour nude images before I can replace it with something else.
I'll take salty spittoon Critique please!
( By the way, I love love love that you are doing Spongebob based critiques! "I slipped on an ice cube and got covered in boo boo's! " "Boo boo's eh? I think you want that hospital!")
I already critique your port saying what was your best and worst on an other thread. Go as you feel, don't be afraid to hurt of to be kind, I can manage both.
Your beauty album frustrates me. SO much potential. Such good make up work. And then there's no playup of the eyes, and the lighting is flat. Also no more cropping off tops of heads! ADD some drama! Its like almost there too.
but with that said, your nude album was lovely. bring everything else to that standard
Weenie hut critique- This is a nice critique that will be helpful. Some good, some bad, weenie.
If its not pushing the friendship too much, which field can you see me entering... If any lol
Thank you, I hope you feel better soon, shoulders are tricky things.
Thank you!
Alright, Weenie hut it is.
Overall your port is very strong. I see good consistent lighting, good crops, good angles. It definitely shows you have a strong talent for this. I believe you could do well in multiple genres. You could do fashion or art nudes, or switch to a sole classy glamour, and be successful.

Weenie hut critique~
2months on MM...that being said... I have multiple images from the same shoot up right now because I can't tell which is the best, but I'd like to round it down to 1 pic per shoot... well I struggle to look at myself objectively, so feel free to axe most of my portfolio

If you have the time and inclination, I would appreciate a salty critique I hope you recover soon, having had issues with a shoulder myself I know how frustrating it can be! I really hope you aren't in too much pain xx
