A good idea for an image.
I think a different colour background would have suited this better as it would have been easier to see the contrast between the 2 subjects.

Nice use of DOF to isolate the subject. This photo, pose, and crop would be priceless(not that it isnt now) if she had a smile and a twinkle in her eye.

Comment by K3Master:
My preferences tend to go toward using a very diluted hue/saturation effect myself. I try and avoid overly warm portraiture unless there's a real reason to use it. (There rarely is in my experience. heh)

So yes, I like the suggestion to tone that down too.

I can't really add any more to what has been said except this: Never listen to family when taking photos, or deciding which ones to keep. They are always wrong. They have too much emotional investment in them. lol.

I wish I were taking pics like this when my babes were little. What an adorable moment! The softness is perfect for this innocent moment. I do see a little too much sharpening on the lower part of her upper lip. When I run into this, I usually just mask it out and see if I like it better. She's a cutie!
