Not many people are going to click through links to critique your photos.
You may want to read Critique Forum Rules before going any further.
Welcome to DPS, and I look forward to seeing your posts!

I took a look and I saw a bunch of poorly lit, poorly composed, and poorly executed snapshots. Sorry to be blunt, but, imo, you are nowhere near the skill level where people will pay you. Your enthusiasm is admirable but nobody becomes a pro photographer after owning a camera for a few months. Check out the photos on this site, at dpchallenge.com or at 1x.com. Bottom line, you've got a ways to go.

I had a look at your site, it took quite a while to load though which was the first thing that put me off. Then I looked through some of your pictures and not one of them sold your services to me. I don't mean to sound harsh and I am not a professional, just a mere hobbyist who knows a (very) little about photography.

Your best bet is start from scratch, learn a whole lot more and then try again in a few years. Photography is something people spend there whole life learning and the career photographers are punished by the cut price deals amateurs offer but the sorry fact is amateurs never catch the moments a true photographer can.

Everything I have learned has been learned here. I now venture into manual or priority modes on my camera where as before I was permanently in auto mode snapping. I have dps to thank for this and will continue reading these forums for further ways to improve my own photography. May I suggest similar ideas for you?
