Excellent use of light!

Very sweet and pleasing portrait. I do feel that you have gone just a little too far in the processing of the eyes - the whites are a little too white, and the shadows in the corner have taken on an orange tinge. The child's dark hair is shown off well against the green and orange background.

Harsh light has meant you have had to rely heavily on post-processing to bring the detail back in the shadow areas, resulting in a good deal of noise.

A sweet portrait - the inclusion of the bear adds enormously to the appeal. The curtain isn't entirely in keeping with the portrait - if you can persuade your young model to cooperate in a re-shoot, how about trying it again with some net hung at the window?

Distracting background and badly out of focus subject. Take some time to get to now your camera - in particular where the autofocus points are, and how they behave.

I am afraid the title has gone right over my head... That aside, I find the style and processing of this portrait quite harsh. I am fairly certain that is the effect that you were going for, which means success, but it is not an effect I personally like. The play of light and shadow on the models hair and shoulder is appealing and interesting, but the light on the arm and face too harsh.

Good composition and exposure, and I like the simple background. I suspect that this would have good stock agency potential.

Lovely - certainly in the Librodo school of portraiture. I just wonder whetehr a very small crop from the bottom would enhance the balance?

...and gorgeous curls! A super model, and a good choice for a black and white study.
