Also you should learn (or befriend someone who knows) Photoshop.

Add variety by having more TFCDs in your port. You have the talent.

Personal opinion - and you are not going to like it. God gifted you beauty - and you messed up by poking your best assets - your lips.

You are good. Only thing bad about your port is your avatar. Its like an expert multi national executive with a poor resume. Remember like the resume, the best you can present to a client is your avatar.

Change your avatar and start charging $125/hr.

Do you have a day time job? If not I suggest you go back to school and learn a trade or skill. Lets leave photography to someone else!

I am sorry Ms. Yusuf: In spite of your obvious good looks and great legs, I shall not pay you more than $40/hr. I do not see you emoting in front of the camera. You have to make the camera - your Boy friend, Best friend, comedian, enemy, ....you get the idea. I dont see that in your port!

Oh smile All the photographers I've worked with are telling me the opposite..then probably I'm the one who picks the wrong images for my port...anyway smile Thanks for the feedback...I'll work on that smile

As for your port - you have it going. you love playing with lights and shadows and very effectively as well..its time you went for a paid portal and had some more individual pictures put on. You are worth hiring for at least $65/hr.

Ms. Yusuf: Alll those photographers were either being polite or were not looking beyond your boobies. I say what is in my opinion. Not necessairly the end all verdict. For your sake, I hope I am wrong in my opinion. If you dont like it...Print this rating in absorbant paper and wipe your butt with it. It will make you feel better at least!
