OK.. as a professional photographer (1st post I know..) I would do away with the oil and try a set or two. the oil creates hotspots. What you need is some softer light.. ask your photog to use some softboxes and change the background. The oil spots are distracting and pull the eyes towards them. as far as content? vary your poses a bit more. If you want to present yourself for work, its better to show 4-5 kick ass shots and throw out the so so shots instead of dilute the great work you did. Also.. retouch it needs to be done. You are a beautiful lady for sure, but you should always show retouched work unless it's just a snap. I guarantee you that once you finish a pro shoot it will be retouched before it is posted somewhere. Fortunately for you you don't require much, but a bit will help. Also.. have your photog drop his Aperture down to f4 and try to a reshoot. Your results are great.. do the above things and they will be even BETTER

Best to you.

We've had our differences Jamie. But that is a terrific collection of pictures. Hope they work for you.

As a horny man I say I like the oil. And I'm sure there will be more than a few ppl to second that.

But which one of these pics is the pic of the day?

You MUST be new. I've been in porn for 7 years. I am a professional photographer, visual effects artist, editor, audio tech.
(employed by many of your favorite porn production companies, including the fine people at Grooby who own this board)
My website is www.tsjamiefrench.com and my production company is www.deadgirlproductions.com

I'm gonna go ahead an pick apart every one of your suggestions.

1. The hot spots are not a problem with oiled skin. The additional specularity is common place in photography and adds a visual exclamation point to the overall shine. I use a 250 watt soft box to key and two 250 watt photo floods with diffusion umbrellas at 45 degree angles for fills. Extremely common three point light for a basic "show all" modeling shoot. Look at my hands... I'm holding the remote and taking the pictures myself. (Cannon T3i with a Sigma 20mm F2.8 prime for glass.)

2. The background is COMPLETELY arbitrary for a set of photos such as these. These are specifically meant for industry and we have some pretty simple rules for these kinds of photos. Front, Back, Side, Butt, Genitals Head shot all against a non obtrusive background. A slightly soiled white sheet works just fine and as an added bonus turns my living room into a quasi-softbox of sorts. ALSO, see all the other comments that aren't yours? Yeah... a big fuss sure was made about the background... (AHEM, PORN... cough.)

3.Poses. See above. These photos are NOT a set.

4. Number of photos. I'm nice so out of the 55 photos I took I kept 36 so I could spread em around to the fans... (remember, 7 YEARS in the industry) Those in the industry know how to gloss over photos to find the things they are looking for.

5. Retouch. They have been lightly retouched. You didn't notice. That means I did it correctly. Industry doesn't want heavily edited photos... they want to see the performers as they actually appear so that a fugo won't show up on set unexpectedly.

6. I've "finished more pro shoots" than there are Dorito crumbs in your beard.

7. My aperture was set just fine shutter at 1/160/F6.3/iso3200 - these numbers are just fine for 3200k lights in a11x14 room. In fact, I purposely shoot a hair dark because I know I'm spending most of my work flow in front of the computer between LightRoom and PS so I err on the side of caution knowing I can always bump my exposure, dial in the white with a simple level adjustments and crush the blacks a little if I need some more dynamism in my PORN pictures, (the shit aint art, it's craft that serves a very specific purpose.)

8. Bad first impression... now we all know exactly what type you are. Assumptive and opinionated. Way to go, winner. Welcome to our gay little board.
