I need a serious clean-up and restart. I'm in a new city and getting back into it after 6 months hiatus. Help me clean up my port/critique me? Jul 08 14 02:50 pm Link Because this is to showcase you as a model and not the photographers...I would lose most of the top two rows except the one leaning on the building and possibly your avatar. The one with the guy in it in the third row should also go. Just my opinion. Jul 08 14 03:05 pm Link I'm not entirely sure why I should delete "most" of the top two rows when they are my published work and most recent? Jul 08 14 05:49 pm Link I like 4 & 6: These two shots are very trendy and lifestyle based. I personally would immediately work with you based on #4. 2: this is a pretty neat product type shot, if you want that kind of work. You'll need more samples in your port to support it though. 7, 8, 10: These are great Fashion shots. 8 & 10 could work well for lookbooks or even certain catalogs. 17: Quite alternative and though I find there is a small market for this, it is a strong image that could probably get you work. So that is what I would keep. Jul 13 14 09:10 pm Link The whole second row can go. Jul 13 14 09:19 pm Link get rid of the miley, myly, miyley whoever....is that how it is spelled...do not know, don't care. but it is temporary, you have beauty of your own...work with it...Mo Jul 13 14 09:21 pm Link You have a number of pics with your tongue out. Pic your favorite and dump the rest. Also, any that don't show your current hair color should be considered for removal unless they are published in which case use the tear sheet not the image by itself. You also mentioned your top row were publications. Maybe you could show the tear sheet instead of just the pic there too? Gives them more value in selling you I think. Nice work! Jul 13 14 09:37 pm Link I remember you so well from when you hung in L.A. and posted here. You have a rare range. You look good in long brown hair wigs. I really don't think you should drop anything. In your profile list the mags, if you haven't. As a photographer who shoots fashion and swimwear I like to get a sense of range as well as how you photograph from different angles. I like the tongue stuck out images because they give a sense of your personality and your ability to help power an image. You're very interesting. Portland? For you? I think you're spirit of L.A. Come back. Now. Jul 13 14 09:43 pm Link This one with the pedestrian right at your arm (really distracting) is the only weak photo. Not because of you, but the distracting pedestrian. Everything else is really good, strong images.  Jul 15 14 09:33 pm Link You are a solid model who knows her stuff, the photos however; on so many levels, are are really weak, not your fault but I can only wish for you to connect with great shooters who can do you justice. sadly you are only as strong as your weakest link. It is rare that a model shines above those weaknesses and you do, but work with better folks if you can. Jul 16 14 12:28 pm Link I agree with post above, a few of the pics you have are definitely very good, but could be even better. I'd love to see you work with someone who can make your talent stand out more. In a nutshell, you worked with some great photographers but in some of the shots, actually #4 in particular - your talent exceeded the capture.

There is a tight beauty shot that looks port worthy, and then the ones with the brown wig are more complimentary to your look. I would start by finding some photographers that can help you add much stronger work that is worthy of your talents. good luck! Jul 17 14 11:07 am Link |
