Oh why not.

You fall under B, neutral, but at least you posted a smiley! So that's a brownie point. Extra points for bunnies, fyi.

Anyway, to the serious part, seeing your avatar, I don't feel like clicking. It seems messy, and not in a good way. I made it big, the editing does your work no favors.

I would work with you if I got to choose the photo editor, and based on these shots:


(this is an exception to the editing- flawless.)



---------------------------------
This one is terrible on all counts:


You could stand to trim your weaker work.

You like crazy stuff. You may even be decent at it. However, if the photo editor and photographer (with editing and lighting) make t look iffy, it returns bad on you.

Awesome critique, thank you so much.
I'm in the process of reviewing my port right now, so this is super helpful.
cheers!

hey kelli.... im bored right now, counting down to quitting time    so lemme know (and here is an extra     )  *sorry, dont know how to do bunnies*

: bunny : without the spaces.

I have spoken with you a couple times. I don't remember what we talked about, but I know you've always been pleasant.

You have a beautiful look but most of your make up doesn't do it justice.

I wouldn't work with you modeling together, because you would likely make me look like an Amazon and I would likely make you look like a midget. No bueno.

As a photographer, I would shoot you alone or pair you up with some of my favorite models who happen to be tiny as well. I would do trade with a good MUA.

I love the new avatar, by the way, I think it's your strongest work. I would lose some of the doubles in the same outfits, especially the older ones.

Let 'er rip.  It's s cary though..   

I've never seen you around.

Sadly, your models bore me. In every set of pictures you have with the same model, she makes the same expression (whether it's a diverted glance, a scared look like you avatar, etc.). It is your job to make them look good.

I hate folders and if I were not critiquing you, then I wouldn't be clicking through them.

I could virtually slap you for hiding this girl in a folder.


She is sexy, she is sweet, she is whatever she is supposed to be in each photo.
Find more of equal ability and shoot with them and put them on your main page.

If you trimmed down to fewer photos, without albums, made the above picture your avatar, and took down the scared-looking pictures, then sure, I could pull a shoot (assuming you areas nice as you seem). One of the reasons you have repeats of expressions is likely because you are posting multiple pictures from the same set. It makes them look inexpressive and represents them poorly. Represent us well and we will love you forever.

Don't post much, but curiousss.

I've never seen you here!

You are 19, tall, skinny, good cheek bones, and you even look sweet while still angular.

Yes. Please. (with me modeling or photographing)

Some of your photos represent you poorly.

You look scared and your head and leg are partially cut off. I feel like your fear fits the mood, but the photo editing didn't mesh with it. Not a fan.


Your foot looks odd.


Your avi is a bit flat as well.

Overall, though, you have amazing pictures. Especially the art nudes and... what would you call them, artistic fitness shots?

This is my favorite,

Thank you for some great feedback! Hopefully you'll see some more of me haha.

Your last photo is horrid. You know better.

I've never seen you before.

You are stunning, decently tall and great stats. You photograph tall, it's too bad you aren't a bit taller but you already know that.

I would work with you for editorial. I don't think we could do close ups together because I don't know how well our faces would mesh.

Your avatar is amazing.

You rock.

Love the new avatar.

In your first row shots 2 and 3 are too similar. Move them away from each other.

Your work is improving every time I see it.

I love this girl, who is she?

Here too if you want.

It's amazing how some people will love a photo and others will hate it. I can't make everyone happy But I do love me some vintage!

Oh and how I wish I were 2in taller, but hopefully it just drives me more.

You're awesome, you have an incredible face, I'd love to use you for beauty shots.

If I'm not fond of you (you have a negative forum presence), good work has to be better.

If I am neutral (you have no forum presence), my decision will be based solely on your work.

If I like you (you have a positive forum presence), then your work can be a bit less strong.

Keep in mind, this is a critique of your work AND your presence on MM.

Anyone can post.

ok, me?

Yeah, I'm a shorty too.

And it's just my opinion. Take it for what it's worth. If it gets you jobs, definitely don't listen to me! You know?

God, I love this. Your portfolio is amazing. AMAZING.

I would shoot with you any day of the year.

I've always liked you. I don't think we would compliment each other well. I would love to photograph you, but you aren't really my style so I could make no guarantees.

You improve, improve, and improve.

I actually like your avi. It shows a new side. It's not good as an avi though. I would actually make your last photo your avi.
You are going in the right direction, and quickly so. Keep it up.

You look kinda like a girl on my derby team too. You would look awesome in derby gear, just saying.

people are probably scared of me based on my presence here in the critique forum...I'm a bit of a perfectionist so I tend to be a little harsh sometimes...but you tell me.

OK Kelli your humble opinion please...

I don't remember you here.

Your work is solid.

I hate shots with blinds lighting (the lines).

Why is this girl sniffing her armpit?


I think ou need to work a tiny bit on composition.. like here. I think it should be aligned more left.



My favorite shot is the cell phone series.

I only looked at the first page.
I would love to do beauty or fashion with you.

Seriously? Are you seriously coming in here??

Positive.

My Wish List
Laura Ann Photography

That's about all I need to say.

I wish you had edited number 3 differently. It seems like Rachels face looks more angular at that angle, and with the dress the editing (or lighting) could have benefited from a bit more harshness.

I wants your images. Bam.

No real critique for you, I've told you before what you need to work on.

Concepts for us:

Hip nerdy kids (think apple guy).
Skaters shoot.

Woot!

I didn't know I was on your wish list.  I feel pretty awesome now.    Cause I love your work, and I love your face, and it does need to be in my portfolio one of these days.

I'll go back and look at the third image.  I'm always open to tweaking my retouching, it's not my strong point.
