Had a really good look at your images and then read your profile.



It is fair to say that the image quality falls a long way short of the promises in your rhetoric. As a professional you make some very bold claims, most notably around creativity and originality, yet your images show none of this.



Either change your notes to reflect what you actually can offer or, better, really invest some time into learning about creativity and then introducing it to your work.



Cheers

Well some people are just blunt and frankly up their own......never mind. 

Welcome Joe.  I think that you might be trying to appeal to the wrong clientelle with your pitch but it is different to the norm - selling that to models is going to be tough though.  I quite like the images, so will wish you good luck on your endeavours.

Try not to take it off topic CheeseyImages. If you have a gripe with me, keep it private eh?



Joe, for the word blunt transpose 'honest'. Unfortunately, I am not a member of the Smoke Blowers Club on here and assumed that as you asked for a portfolio critique that's what you wanted...so that's what I gave.

Joe said hi, he did not ask for your pompus assessment of his ability or otherwise.

Chill man!

Oh, and thanks for the compliment.  It means soooo much from a man of your esteemed judgement.  LoL

Whether your work has been published or not is really neither here nor there.  You asked for a portfolio critique.  I gave you one and your response is as it is.



Quite what your opinion of my work has to do with your portfolio critique is a mystery.  Should I ever ask for a portfolio critique then that would be the time and place for you to offer your opinion.  Until then you might like to wind your neck in

The OP posted his thread in the PORTFOLIO REVIEW (there's a really, really big clue for you) section of the site.



Now most of us would take that to mean that he was looking for a portfolio review.

LoL. Missed that.  Still doesn't make blunt = honest in the english language!

Oh and no more PMzzzz, save yourself the effort.  I won't bother to read the petulant rants.

I don't think we need worry what your interpretation of the English language is when you're clearly so confused that you struggle to grasp the different purposes of the various forums 

Whatever. 

Chill.
