Probably should not have cropped the bottoms of the two strawberries. I'm spending too much time trying to figure out what I am seeing reflected in the glass. Maybe blurr it out a bit so it's less distinctive?

She is beautiful! Doesn't look 49!

Critique: To close to the background. Not sure I like the side view. I would really like to see her smile and some eye contact, but that's just me. :-) Great lighting!

Too much reflection in the glass.
Using a completely surrounding light box would probably help.

Comment by hopper:
The color seems off a bit and she's too lose to the background and causing a shadow on it. I think moving her away a little and having her look more at the camera would have helped.

Nice focus and lighting on the model in this portrait. I would have preferred a less neutral colored background, the model's skin almost seems to blend in with it. I feel that posing her with her chin raised very slightly would have given a more flattering line, also maybe having the shoulders a little more level.
Overall though a nice color studio portrait

The glare on the label hurts me from seeing and truly appreciating the champagne.

If this is the age she certainly retains her youth very well, great shot

Nice colors - great model. Not a lot of impact for me though.

Nice color and balance in the photo (how did you do those glasses?) Good title too!
