Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Based on your "website", no!. Based on your photography, if I was looking for a bargain, I might!. There isn't enough of any specific type of image to base a decision on!. You have some talent and a lot of people out there wouldn't know enough to see the problems, such as the end of the dress cut off in the wedding scene!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

based on the portraits yes I would!. Although there is still a lot of room for improvement- but you are still learning! Even the most advanced pro will look at his/her photos and see mistakes in lighting and composing and posing!. Or at least things he /she would have done differently!. But yeah- I would hire you based on the photos!. You might want to narrow your focus and maybe post only the types of photos that you would to get hired to do!. But keep shooting(with your camera!) anything and everything! Just a tip for the future business end- wedding clients will want to see the wedding pictures you have taken- not your landscapes- National Geographic is not going to care about your wedding portfolio but will want to see your landscapes!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

At this point, no i would not hire you as a photograper!. I might consider you as an intern (working for no pay, just experience)!.

You do have some talent however, and as you are young, you have time to develop it!. What you are showing here are the beginnings of a beginning!. You need your own website, (not a page on flickr) eventually, but first work on your photography!. Take classes and learn the craft!. Stand in a darkroom, get covered in fixer, and learn to print!. Shoot film, learn more about digital!. Learn to control your camera!. Then work as an assistant and learn the business of photography!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Hire you to do what, exactly!? For weddings!? Probably not!. For portraits, probably not!. Anything important, no!. What's on that website doesn't demonstrate proficiency of the camera!.

That was my best fake answer!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

If you want me to be brutally honest, no!. But then probably other people might!. Being an amateur photographer myself, and someone who has seen some really amazing photographers work, I am fairly picky!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
