Ok so I'd love to get some constructive criticism of my port from anyone who's got the time. Anything you particularly like let me know, any advice about what else I could do/change would be great. Criticism is welcome as long as you explain why you don't like something, even if it's just personal preference. Only got a few up since I started my dreadlocks but should be adding more soon as I receive images from recent shoots.

I think none really show you very well they are all at funny angles or unflattering for you I would try working with some more creative and talented photographers as you seem to be only exhibiting images that I have seen done many many times which will make your port fall intothe background

Overall I would say challenge yourself ,work on poses and expressions in the mirror as its hard to see what the photographer would see through the lens working on them in a mirror sounds very vain but does help

Hope that helps

Clear head shots and body shots will always help. Just so togs can get an idea of your overall body shape.

For me your main picture shows promise but I think the editing has let it down, not your fault but you could have had a really strong head shot instead of the wishy washy thing that it is( My apologies to the photographer but thats just my opinion!).

The others are just, and thats about all I can say! Pop in the studio next time you are in Stockport if you fancy a chat, we are opposite the air raid shelter museum.

Is the Albino snake a pet? So much potential to use Hissing Sid in a shot...

Would remove this from your profile notes:Feel free to browse my portfolio on here or take a look at my ModelMayhem profile or Facebook page for more images.

And 'dreadlocks' - not a good idea...keep your hair as it is...lots of various, easy to style shots then.

Good luck anyway.
Modelling is my passion.

Think you show some potential but need more sophisticated and compitant images. Would definitely remove the first image. Afraid it looks like you have been beaten up or just come back from a tree hugger protest, unless this was the desired look, not good.

No Oby's not mine, although I'm hopefully doing another shoot some point soon with the same group of togs. Maybe different snakes this time, they've got quite a few!

Too late to not do the dreads. You can't comb them out once you've started and mine have been maturing for a couple of months. I did it for personal reasons not for the modelling and I don't feel like they will really hinder my work so they're staying.

Yes the look was meant to be scruffy...hence all the holes. I do plan on taking it down once I've got more images of me with my dreads but I felt I should include something recent for people to see how they're progressing, so that's the image I'm using in the mean time.
