Beautifully lit and composed, and I like the softness - its just a shame you couldn't get both the eyes in focus.

Thanks everyone. I had Jessamyn lay on a sheet of mylar (which has a matte finish to diffuse light, but it's also white to reflect) with a white sheet of paper underneath it (36x48). I was using the canon 430ex bounced into an umbrella from above. The "reflector" she was laying on bounced just enough light back up to lighten up the dark side nicely. It's a new technique for me, and obviously, I'm very pleased with the result.

kiwiness ... you're right, seems i owe her a gift :) She's a very patient model and always willing to pose.
