Please critique this. Harsh comments welcome as long as they're constructive. I can take it! :)
This is straight from the camera, cropped, rotated, and resized only.
Thanks!
Sara

I would make these suggestions:
1-The composition would be stronger if the girl were looking more toward the camera, not necessarily directly at it. In this pose she appears to be trying to figure what she should looking at or thinking about.
2-Places on her dress appear overexposed and should be darkened. Everything appears to be all warm tones. You might consider a different colored dress of a cooler color or chaging to a soft focused cooler colored background.
3-The background should be softer focused. As sharply focused as it currently is it attracts viewer attention away from the subject and onto the background.

I agree with Steve's critique, Sara, but add - you chould use either a light to separate the subject from the background or more space between the two. I do both. My rule is "subject no more than 5 feet from bg, and a light between subject and bg (pointing either at model or bg depending on the effect I want)"
