So I'm new to MM and really excited to be confident and bold enough to post here! My goal is to use my natural presence to create captivating and striking images. I'm just getting my toes wet! In celebration of body positivity and self-love I did this intro shoot at the beach in a bikini. Something a former me would have never considered doing. This was a fun shoot with a friend I've talked to a ton but haven't spent much time being around. I got comfortable relatively quickly but definitely have room for growth.


Also this isn't the full set just a few selections from it

-On a scale of 1-10 what would you give this?

-Which of the three is your favorite?

To me, this one has no redeeming features.  I would trash it.

The second has already been removed.
The third and fourth are pretty low on the scale.  You have other pieces that are good.   These do not help your portfolio, other than to advertise what you might be up for.

Unfortunately I would have to agree.  Of the photos you currently have posted, the studio ones and the sunset/yoga one are so much better.
