Im not overly keen on any of the studio shots of you stood in various poses with the white backdrop. If you were to delete those it wouldnt be a huge loss. I love the beauty shot with you smiling, you have a gorgeous smile! I also love the very last shot in your port, nice series, well posed. Delete any duplicates - you have a couple, just choose your favourite and lose the other. If i were ou i would ditch these images 4, 5 , 6, 7, 8, 9, 16 and 17. Keep the rest, they are fab EDIT: and if you are serious about modelling, display your real age on your profile, you dont show up in searches otherwise you know.

I find the american flag bikini shot tacky.... choose your favourite image of you in the white shirt and ditch the other one. Try more conceptual shoots, take an idea, find an amazing team and shoot a killer image! More black and white stuff too, i like your black and white image

DS Images wrote: I'll play... I was certainly drawn in by your avatar. very bold colours and well lit, works really well. I find the second (head)shot in your port bland and boring. you can do better than that! ditch it. I adore the black and white art nude with the rope shot. gorgeous! Lose the headshots either side of it though, they drag your portfolio down. I love the sillouhette shot and the stomach and butt contour shots, they are ace. i hate shots 18 and 19, they dont do anything for your portfolio at all. Id say your particularly good at art nude/ body parts and location work. Stick with that, develop it and make it even more amazing. x

Play on it Love your first image, great intensity in the eyes. If i were you i would delete numbers 5, 7 , 8, 11, 13 and 16. If you lose those and keep the rest it will improve your portfolio 110% Shoot some more swimsuit too, you have the body for it girl!!

Yeh your portfoilio is nice, nothing about it really makes me go wow though. Your top 8 shots are your best, which im guessing you agree with coz they are your top 8.... I dont like shot #9 because its not a flattering angle on the models face at all, i'd ditch that one if i were you. Not overly keen on numbers 12, 13, 16, 17 or 18 either. Try shooting some high fashion/ editiorial looks with strong concepts and strong creative teams

The last shot in your porfolio does nothing for you as a model, we cant even see your face. you could be anyone. Lose it. I love the wedding dress images. very nice indeed. Basically if you get rid of those suggested above and shoot some more on location fashion - possibly with a street/ urban/ edgy vibe your portfolio will rock

Your most commented and listed images is actually my least favourite.... but i love your blac and whites and the second series- like shot "soul meets body" is beautiful. Im not keen on #17 and # 19 but i like your portfolio over all.

Oh sure. I know already there's a lot of stuff I need to ditch, especially on my middle pages (mostly 3 & 4). Newest stuff's at the top of page 1 & bottom of page 5.

Kaylin Omo wrote: Wow- very impressive port- give mine a look First thing that strikes me when i glance over your shots is that you look basically the same in practically every shot. Your hair is gorgeous but it really limits your versitility - wear a wig/hair pieces. Play around with different makeup - dramatic eyes, statement lips. Also, Get some black and white images in there - mix it up a bit! Im officially banning you from headshots - i'm the same, i have too many :S If i were you i would delete image numbers : 3, 5 and 6. Dont be afraid to experiment, it seems you want to...its just not quite hapening.

SOS Yours is a tricky one, i'd say half of it is good....the other half not so good.... i dont like the top 4 images at all, i understand you experimanting with quirky angles but it just doesnt work for me on these sorry. Second row of images are much better! i especially like number 6 and 8. Ok so im gonna now tell you which images i think you should delete in order to improve your portfolio tenfold: 1,2,3,4,9 and 16. I love the b/w headshot. very simple and beautifully lit. I also love the shot of the girl straddling the chair. Please, stop with the crazy angles
