My only "problem" with your portfolio is everything is soft focus. Of course that is not something you are doing.

I agree with Mike. I don't think it's a focus issue. I think it's bad Photoshop work.

chandra..you are lovely

..but..

the diffuse glow filter has run amuk..way to shopped..
the Make up is garish, way over done even for glamour..
pretty much useless in a commercial portfolio..
there is no glamour market in our area outside working for guys building thier portfolios..

you have two images where i can actually tell what you look like..

i dont think you have done anywhere near, your best work yet...

as for advice..work with photographers that dont overexpose images or over manipulate them with heavy PS filters...  smile

Based on the opening statement in your portfolio, "I accept a broad range of assignments and im always up for cool and diffrent ideas" your imaging package is anything but that.  I expected to see much greater range.

Just as in the imaging, the "soft focus" on where you want to take yourself must be more crisp.  If the focus is on nude and artistic work, hard sell that aspect.  If it isn't, hard sell the direction you wish to go.  A huge mistake is in trying to be all things to all genres as it limits excelling in one particular area.

Did that make sense?

Very pretty with nice features, BTW...
