Having been around for er, 1...2...3... 4...forever, I often find it difficult to choose which photos to get rid of to make room for new ones.

Which photo(s) do you think should be the first to go?

Feel free to be as in depth, or not, as you like in your critique.

WTF!

I donno if the wtf was necessary but I'm gonna have to agree.  Wayyyyy too dark to really do any good being in your port.  I get what the photographer was trying to do but it really just didn't work out.

Thanks for the feedback guys smile

You can pick more than one if you wish.

Although the dark, back lit one seems to be the popular choice I'm not particular fond of this one. Beautiful lips though.

Would you like to take a shot at mine?

https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/32459438 Not sure why it's 18+. It shows nothing but a trace of sideboob.
It hides you vastly more than displays you. Worthless in a portfolio.

Interesting image, but more suitable for a photographer's portfolio. You figure far too small in the image.

Thank you.

You want me to tell you your least impressive image?

I don't know if it's a screen thing but I can clearly see both nipples and at least a suggestion of pubic hair. But I prefer to err on the side of caution with marking 18+ anyway.

Thank you, I'll keep that in mind.

I'm not a fan of #4 in your portfolio. I don't think it does anything for you.

Which one should I ditch? I'm forever adding and deleting photos.

Thanks smile

1,3 and 4 are very similar and not particularly strong, so I would get rid of one of those, probably 1. And I personally think 3 is the strongest of those but could do with being a bit smaller, it doesn't fit on my screen very well.

Not suggesting this image needs to go, but you really should kick that photographer's ass for making the logo stamp almost as big as you in that image:
