I gave you some captions to differentiate. I have probably 40 images here on my computer, and I'm trying to pick my favorites to bring around when I go to agency open calls soon. Looking for comments in regards to a model portfolio, and what it does for me (as opposed to looking at them as part of a photographer's book). comments/critiques welcome. Post here, mail me, comment... etc ... any opinions welcome. Jul 26 05 07:35 am Link As a model you shouldn't be worried about a photographer's book. Just pick the best ones you have and put those on your MM port. I'm sorry but I don't see any that you could take to an agency. Paul Jul 26 05 08:23 am Link I don't think any of these photos belong in your portfolio. The strongest one of all; however, is "Nice Shoes." The problems w/ that photos is that your face looks pastey & pale. Your lips need color... Other photos, like the beach shots have too unnatural poses. You look quite uncomfortable. Most of the photos look like they were taken by amateurs. You can do much better than that. I assume you're freelance? Maybe you should shell out a few bucks for a good photographer if you can't find anyone to do TFP or TFCD. Jul 26 05 10:20 am Link & on a side note... Not that I'm one to talk... but I'm also not trying to do fashion... But you're about 15 lbs too heavy for fashion modeling. Jul 26 05 10:41 am Link I agree with Erika regarding weight. The best thing you can do for yourself is to visit some of your local agencies and take a look at the compcards of the models they represent. This will not only give you an idea of the types of photos you should be seeking, but it will give you a chance to see the heights and weights of the models.

Maybe you'll escape the flames because you're female... Jul 26 05 10:48 am Link Jul 26 05 10:48 am Link arrg.. internet problem. sorry. Jul 26 05 10:49 am Link Posted by Marcus J. Ranum: I've never been afraid of fruitcakes... Everything I say is w/ the best intentions. Not going to candy coat anything to anyone. I would never say something just to be cruel (that is of course unless I'm retaliating.) Jul 26 05 10:52 am Link |
