this is one the best in the port.
i feel like a lot of your shots are very sear studio portrait-ish...
and people are going to give you shit for the one pic with selective coloring. (yes i know i have one too) but photographers seem to dislike them on here.

you are a very very talented photographer.
I think you work is strong and something many people are going to love to look at.
I just think sometimes where you watermark is a bit to much and slightly distracting from the image.. but thats just personal preference

I think you make a great model. you have a very natural beauty to you, which isn't as common anymore... so major kudos on that one

https://modelmayhm-5.vo.llnwd.net/d1/photos/080402/11/47f3ac27aff9b_m.jpg

this is really creative and i adore this shot a whole lot.

you expression are pretty on target.. so awesome job with that as well..

..and i also admire that as talented as you are you are still open to accepting tfcd shots.. just to build the port.  that another sign of an excellent dedicated model

this is the strongest one if your port without a doubt.

a lot of the others are good.. but not great...

but i think you have that great potential and should deff keep working on it.

in a non-offensive way it is apparent that you just started shoot.
thats not a bad thing though.
just real some books, take notes of other people work you see.. and keep trying.
the more you try the better they will get so dont give up or get discouraged.

and make sure you have fun with it

thats a good one.

From there when you find your style.. check out some books on lighting (which is what i am working on now)

and any book on whatever program you use for editing never hurts.

you are a very pretty girl.
i think you need to work a bit more on the expressions though cause i see a lot of them same ones over and over again

i think you need to choose different photog as well because a lot of your images are very flat looking (which is not your fault)

i do enjoy this one though:

this one is my favorite, although i think i would have edited it much differently.

i think you are doing a good job though.

the ones on the bottom row. and the pool hall one are good.  the others kinda make you look one dimensional on the background. 

that is usually caused by either bad lighting or terrible editing, but they dont look over edited so it could just be like lighting.

im really not sure what it is but im not a huge fan of you port. i feel like its lacking something and i cant even pick out what it is.
some shots are just from unflattering angles, some are a bit blurry..  i think you should work with some different photogs.

I am actually very impressed with you work. you have a way of creating those darker images but keeping them very sophisticated and classy at the same time

there are a decent amount of shots that come off as being very well done, and other that dont look professional in the least

i think you should get rid of those and it would make your port 3432 times stronger

https://modelmayhm-7.vo.llnwd.net/d1/photos/080320/03/47e216fc5cffb_m.jpg

is one you need to keep.. i absolutely love this one.

I think you have a lot of potential though.
