Hi there everyone.
I'm Emily and I'm just looking for help on everything from posing to expressions right now.
Like I said in the subject, I'm very new to all, so don't hold back.
The poses and expressions could be better. Suggestions: (1) work with an experienced photographer who can give you some direction during a shoot and (2) look at other models' portfolio for ideas for posing and facial expression.

Good luck!
But just one worthless opinion.
Thank you very much.
And I am currently working on setting up a formal shoot because I know that would help me out a lot.
Hi and welcome I see you've been a member since 2009 , as for suggestions yes find photographers in your area by using the browse feature, also check casting calls or make a casting call in your area, to help you build a portfolio, as for posing, expressions, try using a full length mirror and just practice poses, and expressions (smile, sad, surprised, scared....happy, etc.

Hi and thanks for the suggestions.
Yea, I have been, but when I made my profile and my parents found out I had to kinda shut it down for awhile. They thought I was too young. Haha

A tip on facial expressions-
Do your best at thinking of a personal moment while trying to emote the feeling you want to portray. I believe its like "method acting". A quick google search of "method acting" will explain it better than I just did.
ETA: Also do some forum searching on a handfull of topics-escorts,TF work,paying photogs,flakes,posing,fashion model stats,GWCs

That's actually something I'm recently finding out does help when I practice facial expressions.
Another issue I've had in the past is opening my mouth in photos because I do have crooked teeth.
I've always felt that this can hold me back. Is there any suggestion that anyone can give me about this?
