After a long hiatus, am returning to modelling and loving it!  I am so grateful to several wonderfully kind, generous and patient photographers who've agreed to collaborate with me in building a start to my online IG portfolio.

Check me out @cyn.on.camera

Would love for some honest and constructive feedback from the experienced folks here on MM re my photo's included on my page here or on my IG account.

Any Toronto or GTA based photographers or artists out there looking to work with a mature (over 50) model to build up both of our portfolios?  Let me know your concepts and ideas - would love to get involved in some artistic, B&W and light-play work!  My target area to work is in fashion, editorial, creative/artistic, fit, lifestyle.

Cheers smile

Welcome Back!

Under Forum rules we can't give feedback in Newbie Forum, only in the Critique or Serious Critique Forums.

So without it being a critique of your images in any way, just a few general comments about portfolios: I find thumbnail size images distract from a portfolio (they make it hard to see in detail) and, while I use shadows an awful lot in my work, there are times when I believe it doesn't work in a model's portfolio, for example, a silhouette. Personally, I find it refreshing when (most of the) images are clear and well taken, I also find it nice when there are not to many images in a portfolio, to me 10-20 are ideal.

Good luck.

Welcome back!   It was already brought up that we can't critique in sections other than the actual critique forums.

If I can still model at age 69, you are just barely on the edge of mature at 53!  Don't ever stop.

Pixi, you have been a member for 4 years, long enough to know that spamming other people's threads is frowned upon. If you want to introduce yourself just start a separate thread in the Newbie section, if you want criticism of your port just start in the critique section. But please don't spam other peoples threads. It is considered rude. Best, JT
