I think your port is awesome but I am not a pro. There are a few that kind of stand out and should not be in there (because they are not your best, judging from the other material). I really think if you spent more time and effort in the port then it can really be great. :)

I am by no means a professional, so take my thoughts with a grain of salt :) First off, great work on getting different shoots together and taking the time to create a portfolio! The capture of the subjects is there, but a few things that came in to my mind:

- Flare: use a little more sparingly. Sometimes the hazy look it imparts comes between me and the subject.
- Depth of field: again, more sparing use. I'd want to get more background/environment in the shot, tell a story. For me, DOF is like chocolate: a little is delicious and sweet, but too much and even chocolate loses it's charm.

You have some great shots in there, and after just ~6 mos of shooting, man, I am impressed! I especially like the dark trainyard shot. Keep up the good work!

nice PP and portrait work but I'd lose the nature shots... nothing personal but that doesn't seem to be your strong suit... just mho

Your colors are awesome.
The flare look is pulled off well in most of your photos but a few are a little excessive.

thats really all I have to criticize. Good stuff!

Nice ones for someone just starting. However when presenting your portfolio, try to show less and more diversified. The first 6 are the same for example. The BW ones have some haze or lack contrast

Hope that helps

Love the colors on the girl with the blue dress. Not a big fan of the hands in the hair poses. To me, the b&w shots are not as great as your color shots. Your colors are great.
