I typically do travel and street, working on practicing more portraiture and learning lighting. I need some critique. Thanks everyone.

Also, post your portraiture work in general. Would love to see what you guys are doing.

Nice but plain.
If you're trying to sell yourself as a portrait photographer these would be good. Anything beyond that (modelling, wedding, etc) and the creativity is just not there.

Definitely agree with them being very plain and simple headshots. This was just a friend I asked to sit for me so I could play around with lighting and figure out the kinks in all of it. I look forward to more creative sets in the future! Thanks for the feedback.

I'll post a few more portraits I've taken while I'm here and to give more for people to comment on. These are a little over the 1MB limit, apologies in advance.

And because here is the last thing I have nearby that could be considered a portrait. Gorillas count, right?

Looking forward to more critique.

About the girl photos, would more original poses do the deal ? I'm bumping for interest too, I'm an absolute beginner and portrait definitely interest me

I assume it was a difficult to work with, only because I am being picky and wish the hand was in frame. Otherwise it's pretty cool.

This is so fucking good I can’t get over it, the lighting in the face tells a story on itself. Well done

Woud have been slightly better even if his hand and foot would have been in the frame as well. Still, you have something here man

Some basics you're missing-
>Get on eye level
Particularly important for headshots but also important in portraiture. Some people choose to shoot petite women a full foot higher for a submissive look but this is generally the type of people who shoot $5 model mayhem girls and wank over them afterwards
>Do something with the hands
Cliche but it works- you're doing nothing with her hands in #1 or #4, both of which could utilise em
>Catch light
Your catch light is perfect for this stuff and you've shat it up in your first image and put zero detail in #2 and #3, meaning it's almost useless in all of these
I'd also strongly suggest adding a rim light or at least some direction because there's no contrast in these and they're very flat
Also take those wrinkles out of the clothes- this is a pet peeve because it's so simple to fix

It's nice to see some portraits here cause it seems like most people don't like taking them on this board. Anyway.

I am a noob, but I have my own thread here (>>3628449). Check it out if you like.

I think yours are pretty good. At least you get some of the basics down. I am still learning myself.

This is one of my most recent favs. Basic but I think it looks good.

There are a couple of portraits thread up right now. Could take a look.

I think getting a good model is very important. Connect on social media.
