I have noticed the inconsistencies more than anything in your flickr stream. To help narrow down a particular style, I went to your sets only to find that you did not have a grouping for portraits. This made it harder for me to wade through the images looking for a particular style/feel that could be recognizable as what you would deliver consistantly.

That being said, you have a good eye for photography. You set the scene very well and portray moods excellently. This is negated in some photos though by a lack of proper lighting or some white balance problems. There are a fair amount of shots that are not technically sound. Do you use a reflector? I would recommend it if you currently are not. It can help brighten a face while still maintaining the rim light.
The images of people looking up were slightly awkward to me. If it’s a series of images that you did (or do) often, then it makes more sense.

Overall I did enjoy looking through the images and you have some great images mixed in with some okay ones. I would advise you to narrow that down, or at least create “just for fun”, “events”, and “portraits” sets to help make wading through them easier.
