Welcome to the forums!

If you want critique, don't post more than two (or at most three) images. We value being able to give solid, well thought out critique, and that just isn't practical to do with large sets. Pick your two best and then let's see what we can do.

I like the tone of a lot of them, but in almost every shot the composition is just slightly off. Chopped off heads, feet, etc. Also, you've centered your subject in most all of the photos, which can work sometimes, but really doesn't do much when in a set, it makes every photo appear the same and doesn't make a viewer's eye wander between one frame and another. We get no chance to explore, which is the whole point of boudoir.

1: Like it, good pose/angle
2: Like it, I would get rid of the moles
3: Meh, Don't Like that you cut off her feet
4: Would of been good if you didn't cut off the top of her head
5: Cut off head again
6/7: Good Shot, Tad Underexposed but I dig it
8: Bad Angle
9: Good Shot, My Fav on out of the Bunch, however I would retouch the pimples on her face
10/11: Same shot basically however different white balance it seems. Awkward Composition

Overall pretty good, I would work on your crops and composition

Thank you guys.
Maybe I have placed my photos in wrong forum's category....
So, I have a question: Is there a place(here on this forum) where I can just show photos(max. 10) straight from the camera(not edited) to get general feedback which shots are relatively good?
(like @paulvgmip did it using numbers and short opinion-thanks for this)
This may seems to be strange question but it is just about time for me.
Having this feedback I will know which photos should I retouch/improve, etc.. and show later once again....

you said you want a general feedback so imo you could edit 3,4,5,7,9

not a bad set. You cropped off a lot of heads, and #5 would have been my favorite but I hate that you gave her a lobotomy.

was teh first shot through glass? because whatever is on her legs is very unflattering and raises eyebrows if you catch my drift...

My vote is 1 & 2 for the edit

2,3,5,9,10 are the ones I like the most, as they are shown originally here. It might be a good idea to loosen up on the framing a bit when shooting I think, or maybe explore some "talls" when the camera crops heavily into the top of the head for no really good or exceptional reason.
