Like the Vintage look to your images. You have a style and that is good. I would push each and every shoot you have to see how far you can take this look and style.. Check out Some Joel Peter Witken stuff and maybe that can help you in your future shooting.. Over all i like your look. Subjects could be better.

Best shot, classic clean and well done. Nice light. Strong pose, strong model.

I also like 5, 6, 9 and 20 on your page too.
All great shots.


My main suggestion would be to try some outdoor, natural light images.
You def like shooting in studio & inside - so challenge yourself a little.
And it will add a little more variety to your page.

Great stuff.

First off you would be to young for me to work with but you do have an older look than 16. You kinda look like a young Alisia Silverstone in a way. The shots you have in your port are good but, you could work with better photogs and get better shots. Your smile is perfect and you would be great for any type of lifestyle shooting. I would book you for a lifestyle commercial shoot in a minute, but not till you are 18.. Best of luck..

I would say my Favorites would be 3 and 16.. They seem the most thought out and finished. I would also say practice more with lighting and locations. You have the eye now it is just time to fine tune the technique... All in all nice stuff but i can see you can do alot more if you want to...

Great shot, very natural - not an easy look to do for many models.

A very good start, the top half of your page is stronger than the bottom half, but my guess would be that is the newer work.

All these are outside, so try to get some TF shoots with some good studio photographers - and please, be selective. Models under 18 should exercise even more decision making in selecting who you work with.

Best of luck.

Your locations are amazing and for some one who does not shoot as a prof you can take a good picture.. I would love to see some inside studio like stuff of yours or some landscape stuff. I like and keep up the great  work... Love the moods you create in these shots..

great images of natural and casual beauty - you feel that the models were comfortable, and you get nice looks from them.

Also dig #4 & 16

I wish #13 was not cropped right at the models head like that. Otherwise, a nice photo.

A few too many tight shots of faces, that are nice alone - but on the page, kind of blend together. And maybe a little too much effect on #8? Lovely model and nice sky, maybe just too much punch from the sky - the shots I really like the most here are more subtle, but still strong

cheers!

Like number 4, but all your shots give me the same feel and look the same to me.. You have the tech skills now just push your self to go past tight face shots or silly studio stuff. Try locations or outdoor fashion and so on.. You have the eye and skills now just get out of the box you have gotten into..

You need more boobs in your images.

thank you for the critique much appreciated..........I'm still trying to learn the coloration which I see is easier to control in raw format I agree I like subtle and strong as well that is the look I want to achieve. Once again thank you. smile

Your studio skillz are great and lighting is good to. I only wish you would go outside and to locations some more.. Your two outside shots are good but not as strong as your other stuff.. Play with lighting and the outdoors and i think you will find something you have been missing for a bit.. All in all a great port and keep shooting shooting and shooting..
