Hi, I saw you were wishing you had some comments on where you missed with this one. Overall I like it I like her pose and facial expression and the lighting is good. When doing a studio shot you need to pay attention to all the details, this will seem harsh but her hair needs a good combing. The hair needs to look like it is messy on purpose or be done nicely. The way it is right now makes it look kind of snapshotish. Camera angle is important too and on this one you are too low in my opinion you should have gotten higher more in line with her eyes, right now I am hitting on her shoulders and it is hard as a viewer to connect with her. Overall the sharpness is okay but I wish it was a bit sharper on the eyes. And like LVicari said a bit more processing would have done this shot wonders, it would have taken it from a little above average to an excellent shot.

Some Jill Greenburg processing would do this wonders

Cute child and I like the detail in the hair and love the background. IMO, a little less centered would be better and the eyes in better focus. (voted earlier)

A nice mix of warm colors. I do however see some parts of the image that are blown out which seems to take away from the serenity of the photo a bit.

You could help the voters a bit with your title. Like "Fluttering away".
