https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/47735285 unflattering deer in headlights
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/47735286 bad lighting due to eye glasses
Suggestions/ Bottom line/verdict: click after you think crop better
https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/47486038 don't overblow outdoor scenery by adjusting exposure to accommodate indoors. Instead adjust the camera for outdoor light and compensate indoor with proper strobe fill.
Do you make my list?: I could have listed this scene but model is centered and the antique furniture is obstructed with a not so glamorous pose. Hint, make sure model head are away from background objects like lamps , stems or mirror crowns while shooting indoor boudoirs.

model out of focus on both
Suggestions/ Bottom line/verdict: I see no point doing remote shoots and post in your port out of focus pic. Your grip on themes are loose. Your message if any in those photos falls short. Models appear to be distracted and lack camera presence. You can fix those easily.

First impressions: visual approach to nude art
Your Skill level: shooter
Your Work focus: nudes
Your MM Profile usefulness: what you read is not what you get
Your challenges: You do well in figure nudes and specifically second raw from top of that 4 photo set is note worthy although I would prefer in monochrome. The others don't impress me much perhaps because of insufficient model engagement and drape backgrounds that are distracting. Some of those frames could have been shot in more natural outdoor settings and would look more credible as a work of art.

What to delete:  idea is good but could have done much better
not a good lighting compared to although the latter suffers from a bad case of incompatible gaze.
overblown highlight is bothersome.

First impressions: Fetish
Your Skill level: intermediate
Your creativity:  https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/4183300
Specific  style: Not safe for work (NSFW)
Your Work focus: Bondage
Your MM Profile usefulness: Could have been useful if you spoke about your skill set in fetish
Your challenges: pretty generic work in rope  bondage fetish genre. Most fetish photographers like to expose broken souls in their photography and they take their work very personal. In your work the genre is imaged as "a witnessed style"  as opposed to "lived style" It is hard to image bondage and fetish if one is not truly into it, ( in my worthless opinion). Many focus on fancy knots, artistic symmetries, props etc. but neglect to include in their composition true helplessness, the intensity of the submission.

What I like:  https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/43901242 very retro feel like in old "Gaze" pulp magazines
What to delete: 
Suggestions/ Bottom line/verdict: Your fetish style photoshoots although visually appealing will not necessarily provoke the kind of emotion seasoned connoisseurs would expect. Be more personal while imaging such scenes. Not many models can pull this off. I would pick models truly into this lifestyle before i aim and click.

Brighten your photos a bit, lower the spook factor, add variety and color to your style. Don't let anyone to yawn on sleepy poses, uneventful compositions.
