If you shoot this again, tell him not to look at you.

If you'd caught is face in focus, this would have been a fantastic photo.

This is a beautiful model and a very classic pose. The lighting seems to work very well though it seems a bit harsh on her hair on the left. Also the focus on her hair is off in the back, maybe if her head was turned so the but didn't show? The green velvet glove is a nice touch but it blends right into the background and her necklace was cut off. Normally that would work, giving a line going in and out of the shot but in studio shots they frown on jewelry getting cut off. A 5 to start, bumping to a 7

If this is your love, you are truley fortunate, she is quite beautiful and so is the shot, the hot area of bright green on her glove is the only flaw for me. Wonderfully done - 9 - .

Lighting: The lighting is great.
Pose: The pose works well, but I don't care for her expression. I can not tell if it was intentional, but I am guessing not, but the focus at the back of her hair is getting a bit soft.
Background: The smooth black is well done.

Beautiful shot. Great lighting, the background works well with the hair colors,and also brings out the darkness in her eyes.

One of my top picks this theme.. excellent lighting. What would have made it a ribbon pick? The negative space on either side could have been removed and thus moving your subject out of dead center. Also there's something hard/stiff about her mouth that don't match the excellent gaze of her eyes. The pulled up hair distracts me a bit (could be the dof or the loose strands) Lastley the hand fades too much into the background just around the chin. (please don't get the feeling I don't like it -- I do!)

Very classy looking. The only thing I would change would be the color of the glove. It almost disappears in the background.

I'd like to see how this looks with the hair in the back either more blurry, or the hair sharp throughout. Maybe because it holds the brightest highlights it somewhat draws the attention away from her face. Or perhaps burning it a little so it would fade into the background more smoothly would work instead. I think I'd also try a vertical crop of the same shot.
