Every camera, cheap or expensive ones, can only see light and shadow. I would suggest to invest in better light.

If you really want to buy a new camera, it depends on what you like to spend. A full frame Canon (EOS 5 Mark III) is very nice, but do you really need all this Megapixels and sharpness? The sharpness is very nice for architectural Pictures, the Megapixels are nice for enlarging the photos in poster size or using tiny details from a photo. But what you do in portrait photography? The extrem sharpness is unwanted and one of the first things you do in finishing is to blur the face of the model a little bit.

A middle class Canon with a first class lens (yes, these are about double the price of the camera body) would be a good choice. A battery grip for getting more weight to the camera is also a good idea to reduce camera shake.

Please do not listen to two guys above. They have absolutely no idea what they are talking about. Bad camera is only (and big) downside of your site. Of course bad skill cannot be fixed by good camera, but there are many things that even good photographer cannot take picture with bad camera. And bad lightning conditions of pools is one example of this. You cannot go bad with any full frame Canon and some external flash would benefit you as well.

Someone is a photographer! Over the years I've learned that the hard way. I was always looking for a better camera when being a better photographer is what I really needed. Good advice.

Seriously, why?

You don't need a new camera. There's nothing that your existing camera is failing to pick up on. What you need is some photography tips! Maybe go on course or something. All your girls are stunningly attractive, and you put them in some great outfits, but the photos are all the same. There's no imagination or originality. Its the same poses, every single time, with the model's face straight to the camera in most cases. I still enjoy seeing your previews, but they are just a fraction of what they could be.

If you must spend the money, how about a slave flash unit instead?
