I always like to hear which image grabs people the most in my port. Are you the same? Let me pick your best image and tell you why it appealed the most to me.

Thanks very much smile

Definitely this one - https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/41178000

A few artists contributed to creating this but it has such a beautiful feel to it. Definitely my favourite.

I'm not generally a fan of BDSM or erotica so those images were never going to appeal to me, I'm afraid.To each their own.

Your profile pic is actually my favourite. It's a great shot, very natural and genuine. I adore the way you've framed it also!

Wow. Tough Choice.

I love this one - https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/33072769. It made me look twice.

But there were lots I really enjoyed. I loved the blue lighting series as well.

You've got lots to choose from but my eye went to this one first - https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/41749976. It's simple but beautiful and shows you off nicely.

I went back and forth between a few of them but this one REALLY grabbed me - https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/39301658 - gorgeous pose, scene, styling and expression. It all works beautifully.

Hi lovely, I'm sorry I missed you. It wasn't deliberate :S Your port is really interesting. You're obviously a very creative person and you've got some wicked images. I'd love to see you collab with some of the industry greats - I think you'd do amazing things.

I love the attitude and editorial feel of this one - https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30654949 - it shows you off beautifully and has a great overall mood.

I like the old-fashioned art look of this one.

I like your smile and the way you stand out from the background of this one.

https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/40784818

If I had to pick only one, I'd say that the second is my favorite.

I give an honorable mention to this one. I like the look of a really nice drawing.

As for your port, the image below really grabs me. Soft and beautiful. Appears to have been caught in a quiet, reflective moment and not  planned. Your expression is serene, your pose accentuates your curves and a gorgeous, toned pair of legs.

Your body is flawless. You only need to worry about maintenance, there's not really anything you need to think about there. Instead I'd focus on expression. Your body looks great in every photo. Your expressions aren't quite there IMO. Practice in the mirror with your IPhone. Find reference images you love and work on imitating them by yourself before you get in front of the camera. It will make you a much stronger model.

https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/42229214
The above is my favourite without question. It doesn't show an expression but it shows your body off beautifully and the styling is perfect!

This one, definitely. The framing is beautiful, the angle really suits the feel of this shot. It's a lovely moment that looks so authentic and completely unposed. Absolutely gorgeous.

Oh god, I'm just in love with your work !!! I'll kill to be featured in your Digital Art album. Wow!

This one stole my heart and my eye as soon as I saw it -
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/36460555

It's just exquisite. A true work of art. How I would love to be part of something like this!

This one would be second -
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/41977430
I haven't seen anything like it before. Unusual and really stunning image! I could stare at it for hours.

Boudoir album, it's this one for sure -
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/41977574
It has such a raw sexuality and almost without even trying to be. Very effective shot, very classy.

For the featured album, this one -
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/41980700
I love the way you've edited this, it's the kind of image I think young girls would have on their walls. Beautiful, elegant and so pretty.

With a little post processing (definitely need to be make the contrast stronger and the blacks darker), this would be it for sure -

The angle is fantastic, the pose really complements it and the vibrancy of the blood on her in comparison to the bleakness of the background really makes her pop out.
