1860's in technicolor

I like the overall effect, good job conveying an "old-timey" look ... the "distressed" border is a good idea but maybe just a little too much; I'd like to compare with a version with a less aggressive application of the effect.

From the angle of her head I get the impression that there might have been just a LITTLE too much picture-taking going on :)

Good exposure; I like the effect of the veil blending into the background.

I'd prefer a little tighter crop to get more attention on the face, maybe even a square.

It's In The Eyes

Comment:
Lighting, focus, angle are all pretty good. At first I found the blurred line in the background (counter's edge?) a distraction and thought it would look better with a smooth gradient, but since it's right on a line with the eyes I guess it may also serve to draw the attention there ... it would be interesting to try evening out the BG to see how it looks.

That's some serious-looking photography going on there ....

Pretty hard to get a decent baby picture sometimes ... to "double-dip" like this seems like taking maximum advantage of a rare stroke of luck.

Unusual pose (for "portrait") works with the geometry and coloring of your background elements, plus excellent lighting.

Her emotions seem a bit ambiguous to me ... she could be saying "don't take a picture NOW!" Or ... possibly having a great ol' time :)

Low-Key Rembrant Light

I don't thnk your color scheme quite goes with your title (more blues than reds/browns to me), nor is it quite as low-key (a "dangerous" thing to try at DPC anyway), but I like it quite a lot the way you have it.

The "nimbus" is a little overly-bright to me, but a good idea/effect anyway; like your background.
