Ok, so here it is...i'm looking to see where to go from here. I wanted to try it all..so I did. Stock Photography, done. Fashion shoots, done. Swimsuits, done. Nudes, done.....am I missing something?...because with all that I have done... I still feel as though my portfolio is fairly weak...HELP! I need some advice. I'm starting to think it has something to do with me. Jan 12 10 01:35 pm Link Try working with a varity of photograpghers. Just because you've done one style once doesn't mean it can't be done a second time. In fact, it may take several shoots of the same style before you find a picture that you really fall in love with. Also, try working on your expressions and poses. Jan 12 10 01:44 pm Link Zay Vassar wrote: Stock?? Where? Fashion??? Where?? Swimsuit?? Not in this port. Nudes, ok, you have done that. Jan 12 10 04:57 pm Link I see you looking at the camera a lot. It's the same you in all those images, so why do you have more than one of them? You should be more of a chameleon, blending into the environment seamlessly. You can still blend and be standing out. For most shots, you can be seen posing, which is not good. I shouldn't recognize that you are posing, you should just be. Find the nature of the visual environment and coexist with it. Forget about the camera, be a part of the image. You don't have to try to be the focal point of the shot. It's better if you are as much a part of the room as any well-lit chair. Does that make sense? Jan 12 10 10:01 pm Link What is your goal as a model? If you want a strong portfolio, define what that means. Describe it. Use examples. It's hard to achieve a goal without knowing what it is.
