With my experience and my make up artist (who has really saved my ass at times!!), I could make those girls look really good.
Good interaction with the model is so important. Knowing what positions are flattering and not flattering to the model, background and location, wardrobe, etc. I can go on and on.
Photography and and video production is not about having a DSLR stills camera and a video camera. There is way more to it.
My best advise is find a good photographer and intern for him for at least a year and you will really get good.
But people seem to never want to work for anything and assume shit is easier than it is then they piss off their clients with bad quality of work and loose their gigs.
Good luck with what ever road you choose to take.
