model wanting feedback on portfolio - NSFW

<p>Hi I am a model wanting feedback on my facebook page and portfolio <br /> https://www.facebook.com/Lia-Maria-1102527316432788/<br /> Many thanks Lia</p>

<p>Lovely model but I feel the added stars over the breast distract from the rest of the photo, especially the body art.</p>

<p>I think the stars are intended to mask the nipples. Other photos in her portfolio also do this.</p>

<p>Hi Lia,<br>

Your Purpleport portfolio has stronger images than the Facebook page so it maybe an idea to post some of the images from PP to FB. You are really attractive and a couple of your studio shots are interesting. My recommendation would be to work with more accomplished photographers.<br>

What makes a better photographer in the genres you seem to be interested in? Someone who has ideas and the technical understanding to carry out those ideas. Add to this an understanding of the latest trends within the genre. The quality of post processing in a lot of the images are not quite to the standard that would elevate you as the model, to the next level. There are a couple of options. You could pay the likes of Jack Russell or Kris Karl to give you the very best of the genre or work with some of the other fantastic talents close to you who would work at TF basis. Check out the likes of TrevorR who is not a million miles away from you. PP has a search feature by distance radius. Check for how many FPIs your chosen photographer has been awarded as that sort of thing does mean they are aware of the latest tends and trends within model photography.<br>

This is me on <a href="http://purpleport.com/portfolio/taz75/?referrer=taz75">PP</a> by the way.<br>

Best wishes.</p>

<p>A pretty girl, short by agency standards and the tattoos are a problem for Commercial and Fashion work. The pictures are dated but that could be the photographer that you work with.</p>

<p>A LOT of potential as a model. But unless you were intending a Kill La Kill homage, the Nipple Stars are a bad idea.<br>

Other problems:<br>

- The pose makes you look nervous - almost scared. There are two reasons for this:<br>

1. Your feet have probably been mis-placed and you don't have enough of a base. This alters your body language - more of an L for your feet with your weight on the back foot is usually safest<br>

<br />2. You're doing The Bambi Stare, like a startled deer. Go watch Peter Hurley's squinching videos on youtube.<br>

The position for your arms is probably widening your shoulders, talking of Hurley...<br>

Other problems: out-of-focus and under-lit tattoos look like smears; the photographer needs to light your lower eyelids better or to retouch.<br>

...Which is all good news. Because with a night of practice - watch all Hurley's videos - and a better photographer, you'd jump several levels in photo-hotness.</p>
