Tell me both the good and bad

LOVE:
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/8286205 this because it is fun and creative
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/15805058 the soft, natural light
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/93582 creative use of space
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/6289155 images that have a story/drama
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/28557475 that i actually like the colors here, even how dark the hands/feet get
HATE:
that you have 126 images and all that does is make it feel cluttered
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/23804129 how softened this is- diffuse glow???
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/6786331 the grayish color and plastic skin
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/17073633 plastic feeling, odd tones
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/8988906 how red his chest is

I'll take a 5 that you like and a 5 that you don't like please...

LOVE:
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/24446161 how good the lit part of her face looks edit-wise and skin-wise
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/19514862 again, the skin edit
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/27628285 the effort you put in to creating a look
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/22424722 not being afraid of pictures that aren't "pretty"
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/23031716 the soft simplicity
HATE:
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/21716064 that she looks like her legs are amputated and her hand is cropped
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/23500295 the odd white glow around her where she is placed on the ground
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/22169084 that this feels flat
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/16471139 that this tries for old-time, but doesn't quite succeed in the edit
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/19514903 the slight glow on the female model's face

I'll take ten that you don't like, if you are still doing this.  Thank you smile

HATE:
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/24568967 this crop, and that her upper lip looks nonexistent
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/27683485 how hard the shadow is on her face, and the glowing thing that doesn't make sense
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/13331394 how plastic/glowing the skin is
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30605405 armpit dominated pictures and glowing skin
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/28999987 the blocky black shadow disappearing her hair in to the background
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30552962 that the flare looks fake, and i have no idea what happened to her eye
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/27128021 i can't tell if she has really noticeable wrinkles, or if it hair on her forehead, and her eyes look asymmetrical
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/26755553 the light imbalance from one side to the other
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/26325336 that i feel like i see a glow radiating around the model

https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/28773506 natural and easy connection to camera
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/26913146 real smiles!
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30293508 that you can connect to a viewer
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/26912819 poses that aren't forced
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/p … 1#28773474 interesting expressions
HATE:
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/28759873 smiles that feel forced
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/28699650 https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/28699622 two images that are basically the same
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/26453501 again, forced/stiff images
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/29529245 the placement of your hand (looks as big as your head because it is closer to the camera)
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/p … 4#26912692 that this doesn't really say anything about you/add to your portfolio

Seems like quite an amount to take on for each person. How about I ease the burden slightly and request 3 things you like and 3 you dislike about my port?
Thanks. :^)

LOVE:
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30889203 creative angles and framing
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30843043 the mood
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/26262309 use of light and shadow
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/29026342 shadows!
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/29872920 the color tones
HATE:
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/25963051 the blurriness of the skin, and how short her legs look from this angle
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/26943394 the bright spot on her chin
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/27690924 that this feels like a snapshot of an uncomfortable model
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30800628 the grayness/softness
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/26262309 that the highlights do feel a bit blown out on top on her face

I'll play, dislike please

HATE:
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/27613170 that it looks like your legs are short and your arms are long- wish  you had tilted/extended them and pulled the arms in!
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30221300 that your face looks empty
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/27958347 the slightly awkward hanging hand, because the rest is awesome
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30056788 awkward hand on leg
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30169372 that the bottom left pose looks fake and you lost your neck
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30169445 stiff hand, and your tendency to raise that shoulder and scrunch your neck
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30169349 same shoulder!
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/24407080 gar. same shoulder.
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/28963248 your hand/face feel stiff
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30540327 your face looks bored/fake-surprised

ohh yes please!! I want to know what photos bring me down so I can ditch them! so...maybe..8 bad n 2 good? haha its up to you

LOVE:
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/29566853 your face.
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/29426397 your face. come to NYC and shoot big_smile
HATE
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/29627518 this is kind of both- i ADORE the middle image, but the others bring it down! i wish the middle was posted alone, the other two look forced
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/29763486 again, the top is awesome! the middle is stiff, the bottom is cute- i just wish you could lose the middle!
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/29566994 that this doesn't add to your portfolio
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30673226 your expression feels blank
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/29520590 i just don't see what this adds- you have other nudes/things that showcase more interesting posing
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30487208  not a fan of the expression on the top image, or the tones
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30600838 the stiff arm on the leg
-how many series you have where one image is awesome but the others don't compare

I learn more from knowing what is not liked.....

HATE:
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30804463 the green that doesn't make sense and oddly cuts off her nose
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/29556366 the large distracting hand and grayish tones
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30804432 the light- her legs are lit from a totally different side than her face
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/29860835 the crop, and flatness
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/19490985 the incredibly black face shadow making her eye and cheek look creepy
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/26296220 the angle shrinking your model and giving her a huge hand
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30644708 the hotspot on her chest
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/28399600 that this just doesn't feel interesting/compelling
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/14553825 how you have lost all detail in the blocky black shadows on her skin
-how many repetitive images there are- less is more

LOVE:
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30824837 the framing and quality of shadow on her skin
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/31054595 the softness of the shadows on her skin
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30833334 the framing and tones
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/31054603 the overall color scheme
-that you don't have 200 pictures (adding a few would be good)
HATE:

https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30824837 that the highlights feel blown out

Both please!

LOVE:
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/20009064 your use of light and location
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/19984718 the colors/tones of this image
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/20017966 how you set a mood/tell a story
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30087139 that your images have mystery
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30087139 the blue vs yellow and how much itneresting light you find
HATE:
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30087050 how bright the highlight is on her knees
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/11410090 that i assume this is you and am generally not a fan of pictures of the photographer in their portfolio
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/26207034 how i can't help but think that this would be cooler without the llama, but not even too exciting after that anyways
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30780438 that this doesn't measure up to your other work
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/29551884 something about this- that I can't put my finger on. i like the light on the wall, but something about the lighting/color of the llama feels off.
