Nice pictures overall. Kit lenses are very much okay once you only want to shoot pictures like this, with the very clear look/high apature. You should get a 1.8 or 1.4 prime lens which is great value for money, then you can start to blow out the background and create some more badass photos.

Watermarking: I see you also fight the thing of what kinda mark to put on them, so did i in the beginning. Right now i came down to the decision to have no watermarking on my pictures. If i take pictures of a car, i just tell the owner to write my name in a text instead. Pictures speak for themselves, so people will contact you anyway if they are interested in shoots, that's after all my experience and opinion.

Keep shootin

Nice shots, video needs more content and a little less focus adjustments, but on to a good start!
