Okay, so second time around, 3 different choices. Third is my least favorite due to background, clashing clothes. Anyhow, I would really like opinions and how to change these pics for the better! TIA

I think the first one is good but could be a lot better if you cropped it at the bottom- your hands look a little awkward.

Maybe with the help of a retoucher or your photographer, you could photoshop the colors in the last one- I think it could really work as a theatrical shot for you.

Best of luck!

The last one is definitely the best of the 3. The first 2 are a little awkward for me.

I have attached a quick retouch of the last photo on things you may want to consider doing. Most notibly the background needs to be more uniform (you could tell it was a sheet behind you). I also cropped the photo. There was too much room above your head and looked like it was done at Sears portrait studio.

I was able to crop the first photo and sharpen the image a bit more. It looks much better this way. Something to consider. A very nice commercial shot now.

These are not marketable, especially the 3rd photo. Start over. Really, I am not trying to hurt your feelings. You are new, casting does not know you...and your photos don't say anything about you.

Oh dear. First of all, I actually think you are so very cute and marketable.

The bad thing is these pics do not showcase that at all. The third one, you look bored and the clothing choices are way too "mature" for your age category. I would expect somoeone id their fifties or older to wear that. Sorry but it's true. I do like your hair in the third one though and your are kins cute in the second one so it is somehwat okay if you HAVE to pick one for a short time. But the first one is like a snapshot and you look awkward so sadlt, you do need to get more done.

Bottom line- these shots will hurt you- period. I encourage you to explore your pretty, youthful side and have fun in your next shoot. Look around a lot more portfolios to find the right photographer for you.

You've got a great look, but in these shots, you look very uncomfortable. You need to find a photographer who: a) can light a shot properly; b)can choose an interesting background; and c)put you at ease so your true nature can shine through.

Look at a lot of professional photographer's portfolios, and find a few that you like. Then, meet with them, or at least talk on the phone, to get an idea whether your personalities mesh. If they do, you will be relaxed on your shoot, and with your looks, you should be able to get a great shot.

Good luck.
