Not in a particularly good mood....

Feel free to ask for critique on a particular shot or aspect.

Or I probably would tell you my least favourite item in your port.

Feel free to send me a message and I can tell you what I think one to one.

My Instagram has my latest stuff if you want to see my perspective.. a roast in return is welcome too.

It's nice but the light is slightly boring and the expression can be wilder.
It's a personal taste thing but maybe crop a bit more, maybe right above the knees? The current crop just look weird to me.

Get funky and playful and maybe shoot some Terry Richardson style stuff with someone good at it.

Take this one out if you feel like it.. I think it's weak

Hope to shoot you some day.

Good news first:

These are not bad.

I think I understand the black space.. but the subject is too tiny.

Bad news:
Everything else.

Lighting is very boring. Looks like a photography student's work from the 80's.

Models all look as if they don't care about/for you. Very little emotional connection in the photos.

Your style needs to look modern desperately. Go buy the latest Vogue or Elle even a photography magazine and see how others do it.

Do more of whatever you did there

If you want to stay old/classic, go more hardcore. Yousuf Karsh is timeless.
