Just uploaded some new photos and set a new avatar. What do you think and what should I work on? *~Susan Sep 28 14 02:29 am Link It's ok. . . .it's not great. Keep posing and praticing in the mirror, work on a variety of expressions. The contrast seems a bit high in your profile pic, and I don't think it adds anything to the mood. I think https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/33038210 https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/33038230 are the strongest photos you have-makeup, decent lighting, decent mood. Sep 30 14 12:27 pm Link First off find photographers that do not need to put giant logos on your photos, especially if they are placed across your body in the images  Your legs are not in the most flattering of posing positions when knees are locked  Location of belt is accentuating your tummy, the see through area of dress is also adding to this  This is your most flattering of your portfolio photos Use for logo Sep 30 14 05:03 pm Link I think this is the best shot of you in your portfolio: https://photos.modelmayhem.com/photos/1 … fe8422.jpg Straight on poses don't work well with your structure but you ROCK 3/4 turns and profile views. Your expression/face in the above shot is on point. You look fierce, confident and slightly aggressive - keep that up especially for fashion and editorials. My recommendation for improvement is to get with a makeup artist and have one on set, the really do make all the difference in the world. If you're wanting to get into editorials and fashion, get with a wardrobe stylist and start paying attention to trending fashions. Your portfolio should reflect that you are on top of the trends NOW, not a year from now, and a stylist will know where to look and how to mesh wardrobe with your body type. Use those outfits on set, not your casual wear clothes. Last but not least, stare at yourself. In the mirror. Every night. Stare at yourself and try poses and expressions that might FEEL unnatural but look great and commit those poses to muscle memory. Our natural stance, sit and photo pose is hardly ever conducive to actually photographing said pose and you'll want to break those bad habits. Get with a modeling mentor and see about getting a thorough critique of your modeling and they'll give you excellent starting points.
