I think it's a very nice, natural portrait and that you should take more pictures
of her. She's a natural beauty.

I agree, she is very pretty, very photogenic... I would take off the dark edge (the vignette) though, cause my eye keeps going to it... instead of her!

Great capture. Great shot. Great portrait.

The use of the diagonals are used very wisely to make for a dynamic image. Placing the axis of the eyes on a diagonal is professional technique.

I especially like the use of a vignette to focus my attention toward the center of the image.

Expert technique. You did good.

Once again, I think this gorgeous photo could benefit from some contrast... I bumped it up in this shot and cropped it a little bit. Not a lot.

As for the vignette, while I don't mind them, when they're this obvious, it can be distracting. It should enhance the photo subtly, IMHO, rather than be a huge part of the photo. Try backing it off a little and making it a little less obvious and I think you'll have it!

Great shot!! Keep it up! Beautiful girl.

photogmomma, I agreee completely. Too much vignette can and does often defeat the intended purpose of complimenting the subject--subtlety rules.

Your edit skills transformed a candid into a really-good portrait.

klc, you have good camera skills.
