Just got done uploading a few new portrait pieces. Would love to hear some new perspectives on my work.

I like them. I really appreciate your experimentation with color, composition, light, and story telling. My fav of the bunch is this https://photos.modelmayhem.com/photos/141102/07/545647cef0624_m.jpg
My least fav is the one in the bathtub (just a personal bias, I have seen one too many bathtub photos, lol)
Also, although I like your avatar photo I don't think it's that compelling of an avatar for model mayhem.
Keep polishing up your technique and you'll be great.

Very theatrical in nature. Some are very nice images.

I actually agree with both your assessments. The bathtub photo, I have a better one from that series I plan on uploading instead.

Thanks for your thoughts smile

Which stands out to you if you don't mind me asking.

I appreciate the playfulness of your composition and subject matter. I also enjoy your use of light and shadow.

This one is really great.  Love the composition, colour, light, expression....everything fits so well together.

I also really like this one.  I have seen something similar in the past, but not as well done as this (especially in terms of tones/colours and light).

This is well done, but less unique.  Very classical in setting and mood.

I am not a fan of this one.

Love the quirkiness of this image and the colour/tones.  Don't really understand the chain so maybe I am missing the entire point of the photo, but aesthetically I like it.

I really like your approach to your work and of course the results.

This is my fav:

I wonder what the colour version would look like? I'm thinking very similar if the model was wearing black...

Well done!!
