Cool I'm game.

Hi Tasha, you're cute...you look way younger than 23 though. I like your port...I think it suits your personality. I'd drop that last one though and get some shots that you don't look "all happy" in to get some different looks. Keep it up!

Hi Robert, nice shots but I don't feel you're capturing the essence of the models, like you're not feeling each other...I dunno, I just don't feel the connection. I'd be interested to see how your pics change if you worked with one model on multiple shoots. I bet if you do that and then look through the pics you'll see the progression from a model just standing in front of a camera to eventually you and a model making photographs together.

I've been feeling that myself, but was looking for a better way. Your idea of working with one model over multiple shoots sounds like a good approach.

Thank you for the feedback!

Well Viperjoe is really nice. When you shoot her again take some where she's not looking into the lens. I think her eyes overpower her body and suck you in. I like your mix of studio and outdoors too and you work the locations well. Nice stuff. I also like that you shoot all sizes and keep the look natural.

Me please!

Hi Christine, I looked at your port and to tell you the truth I can see that you're a dancer by alot of your pictures but I have no idea what you're wearing in most of your shots because of your eyes. They completely suck me in. You have and will continue to have premium headshots because of this. Very nice port though...no complaints here

I'm ready for you....give it to me !

Well I prefer your locations shots to your studio work...the studio looks too flat for me and you seem to have a better eye for composition outdoors...it's almost like there are 2 different photographers in you. I prefer the outside one.

I'd love an opinion, thanks in advance for the time!

Nice port, sharp, crisp images...well done...lets get some shots now where the models don't look like they know they're being photographed...everyone in your port looks very prepared. Very nice stuff though.

Nice studio work with lighting and all that but your models look a bit expressionless except for the girl with the umbrella. Try and have them be more engaging like they're trying to communicate because right now it look like they're saying "We done?".

Lets hear what you think...

thanks in advance

Nice portraits, especially Michelle Lynn...sweeeeet...you seem to have a little trouble with the posing for the full body shots though except for April's. Other than that you're a very good portrait photographer...your models must be pleased.

always up for critique, from a fellow comrade, thanks

I get the feeling that you shoot friends more than new models alot. My favourite is Jen in that archway because of the composition. I think if you composed better some of the other shots would be more appealing. You tend to be right in front of them shooting head on. Switch up your angles, control your depth of field more and you'll get completely different results.

Thank you all taking into consideration, and (2) listed were models from MM, but now good friends, thank you again

I can always use 2 cents!! count me in!

The variety of your logos compete with your pictures...you've got 6 different types. Once I get past all the designs the shots are alright...nice studio technique and variety. None of them really jump out at me except for Melody...her pose is so strong. I think your second row should be your last row.

Your responses are quite insightful...  I'll take a chance!

Well, you're one of the few photographers who has a port that really doesn't show any of the model's faces. They are good shots and the models have great body language but they are anonymous!!!! next time show more of the face so we can engage with the shot.

im in next!

You're doing great. I like that you're not just into skin, skin, skin. You've got a good diverse port and you almost look like you become the concept for the shoots...like emotionally...sort of like an actress for the photographer. Well, that's what I think anyway. Keep it up!

Cool - yes please

Very clean images. Excellent execution and your shots have feeling. I like your simple but effective style.

yes please

Hi Casey, your port is alright but I think you should do more non-nudes to balance it out...or post more. You've got a great look, especially when you show no expression and you're just natural. Your pale skin would look great with the right wardrobe/colours so ramp it up and let me see more of you.

if you still have the will to do this, would you do me?

Interesting portfolio, I had to go back and see if you were a model or photographer. You look like a few different people in your port! Nice diversity! I have no idea what you look like now but continue to switch it up. Nice!

GREAT body language...wow, you're all over the place, even upside down. I like that you're not timid and none of your pics are raunchy. Nice port Moon! Keep it up!

I'd love to know what you think.

Hi Neil, my initial thought was that your pictures looked like snapshots but the more I look it's the model's poses that make me feel that way. If you're posing them then you have to work it a bit better than that and if they're posing you and you're not liking it then you have to tell them to switch it up. You shoot mostly head on too...work some angles next time for more variety.

Porter Photography wrote:

Hi Angela, guess what...you've got a wide variety of outfits and poses both in studio and out but they look all the same to me. The reason is in every shot you have your mouth closed with the same expression except for a couple where there's a slight smile. You have to work on your expressions to liven up the shots and create different looks for yourself. You're photogenic though but that's just some constructive criticism.

Thanks a lot for the critique!
