This could be my monitor, or it could be my eyes but for me this pot is blue...

This looks blue on my monitor. Sorry. Even so,it's kind of a dull composition. The planter has potential as interesting subject matter but I would have cropped out the unnattractive foliage, the wood, and the grass in the background. None of these elements add to the composition. The whole thing looks rather drab and colorless.

Uninteresting composition. I'd much rather look at what's planted above. Would've positioned the planter more to the right and much lower in the frame.

Lighting: The lighting on the face is good even if a little dark, but there are many hot spots elsewhere in the image.
Pose: her pose is ok, but the glasses have got to go.
Background: Cluttered and distracting. A shallower DOF would have provided the hint of the train without it overpowering her.

This looks more candid than a portrait studio to me.

Not really a studio shot, and the reflection in the sunglasses is distracting. Portraits are all about the eyes... asking your model to take off her glasses would have helped a lot here. Your background is also distracting... a shorter DOF would have been a tremendous help for this image.

Although this is a nice snapshot of your model, it really doesn't say "studio portrait" to me. The area behind her head and the highlights along her arm are extremely hot, and the reflections in her sunglasses are distracting. I do like the off-center composition and her natural pose. :o)

An ok snapshot, I suppose... but this doesn't exactly qualify as a studio portrait in my book.
