I like the negative space here and her expression. The pose, I think , is very flattering for her (more then others in the series). Maybe to tight on the right with hands to close to the edge or cropped to little(??)

actually i'm not really thinking about an intention when shooting these kind of portraits (which maybe sucks, but i can't help it). she has this beautiful red curlish hair as you can see in the other shots, but here i wanted to go for a more severe(?) look with her hair so i told her to press it against her neck. i cropped it half face because the light came only from the right side so the other half was shadowed anyways. i post processing i replaced the black background with the blue gradient bg, because that matched the skin colors best, that i had processed before.

I love the light here, and the colors. The blue complements her red hair and her skin tone.

Well I love the lighting as well. I like the red. I would suggerst you get some sort of seperation between her butt and the background. s it is now it seems like her leg is chopped off. Other than that you have a fine image here with some great lighting.
