...thinks about your book and profile, that is!!

Critique may be me listing your best shot or shot to delete; what may be a model/photographer turn off or on in your bio for readers; observations on other matters visible to the public; etc.

I probably have to NOT talk about your lips for paragraphs again this time... LOL
You have such a beautiful face! I have a weakness for Asian girls, they're just the best!!
I hope you pursue teen/junior catalog. You'd be just perfect for that market.

Hi Natalie,
Hope you're having a healthy pregnancy and that you bounce back from the birth swiftly and jump back into shooting. I think you have a lot to offer such a beautiful state that needs girls to shoot at the waters!
Moisturize that belly!

This is my fave shot from your first shoot. Awesome work for your first shoot. Best wishes, and remember, especially for being so young, be safe about who you shoot with and the terms of shoots.
I am happy to be your first post in the forums as well!

For a more in focus shot, speed up the shutter speed or explore your sports settings to lock in and get the shot.
I like the commercial stuff you do.

This shot is so cool but the wrinkled bed sheets take away from it. I know this is no fault of your own and nothing you an do to fix. As you grow in your shooting you will know people you've grown beyond who do this sort of a set up. Seamless paper is a standard for studio work and if he can't give you that then you should find willing parties who will... and you WILL!
Love the motion shot and that you're doing more than just standing in your shot!!

Hi Molly,
Congrats for shooting at such a young age. You have so much time and opportunity to grow.

This shot has the right spirit but I'm not sure the shots were the best choices of the series. The bottom shot, she looks rather pensive and overall unphotogenic. Maybe I'm missing the editorial aspect of what you were trying to express here, but chances are if I did, many viewers are also.
Try selective liquify in PS to feminize her jaw. Most models have features you want to play down and that is hers.

Amusing self portrait!! LOL

A quick fleeting thought on your bio...Pairing raunchy and fetish could be seen as insulting to some. We get its not your thing but always remember how active a community the fetish/bondage members are on MM and that you may offend without meaning to. You shoot nudes and do you cringe when some model says in her profile "...she doesn't pose nude or anything raunchy like that..."?? To each their own.
Just something to think about.
I bet in your town you have a prime pick of lovely ladies in such a high trafficked area!!

Hi Leo!

Even though you shoot nudes I sense you are face focused. Be a great headshot shooter and you'll never go out of style. Right now you're all over the place, but, narrow down what you feel works for you and what you lean towards most, nail it several times, then see how to vary it from there!

Come home sad

I gather your use of negative space for your studio work is intentional so this is just an idea... I think you'd have stronger shots doing tighter crops on the same shots and taking them to vertical format.

Like your work! My only critique is not being too fond of low contrast. I think people use it for sort of a flare look or vintage tone, but, just not my preference. That is all it is though, a preference.
