some brutal honesty needed...

[alveraz]

Hey guys,

I need some help. I have way too many headshots in my samples area on my website. I need to cut about 25% of those but I've been staring at them for so long I'm no longer objective. If anyone has a minute or two I'd really, really appreciate your help with figuring out which ones to get rid of.

I know a few kinda suck, but I'd like to know from you which ones I should dump. Just give me the number of the shot(s) and a brief description, I'll then chop away!

Thanks guys!

I honestly don't think you have too many. Yes, its a lot, but it shows you have a lot of experience and almost never 'miss' with a client. Also shows that you can take tons of different styles and looks. People can get a better idea of what they want. They can say "I like what you did for #240558, I want to look like tha guy"

If I was going to cut any it would be the guy grinning with the construction helmets and the kid with the giant eyes. :)

Looks pretty great overall!

You want some brutal honesty? I think you're just fishing for compliments on your fine work.

Very nice. The kid with the eyes was...jolting to say the least.

But overall, great images.

Thanks for the help guys. I dumped the kid with the big eyes, he's my son, but I get it, it's too jolting and needed to go. I don't really see any other unanimous thoughts so I'll hold off until I hear more from you guys. Two of you mentioned the construction guys but that's my only decent character look that I have and a lot of actors need shots of character roles for their agents. But, if anyone else dislikes it too, I'll dump it.

Thanks, this is truly helping, keep it coming.

Cheers,

Agreed. I'm on it.

Thanks!

I think you have a great porfolio; there area few that seem a tad hot on the skin complexions (fair skin) and I'd consider axing those... But other than that ...... i think they all rep you kindly !

[alveraz]

Yeah, I was having a light-balancing problem there for a while, but I've since made some adjustments. I'll go check again though and remove a couple of the blow-outs. Thanks Hudson.
