I think you have an excellent shot, but I think it's too red. If you open Hue/Saturation in Photoshop and adjust the red level you can see that it's nearly all red actually.

I adjusted Hue/Saturation (desaturated reds a bit), used Curves on the red channel mainly to try to find a more natural skin-tone and finally some color balance where i pulled the yellow/blue a bit to the yellow. I'm truly no expert on this and it was a quick-fix, but I think I got it to look a bit more natural. I've uploaded it into my portfolio as Janni2. Hope you don't mind - I'll of course remove it soon.

It's a nice photo.
I agree - the crop is too close for my taste, including the partial ear.

Something about the photo is distracting. It's like it's too "in your face" or personal space when looking at it. Would like to see the color adjusted. Maybe a different/lower angle.

The thing that bugs me the most about it is the red reflection on the face because of the red shirt. It makes the model look embaressed. The ear is cut off as well. Otherwise it's good.

Overall a good shot. Something about it doesn't capture my interest too much but I can't figure out what that is. I think they'll really like it though. Maybe the crop is too close for my own personal taste and for me it would be better to involve a bit more of the hair. Or, to lessen the darkness just above the skin of her face, maybe add a splash of light onto her hair to highlight it a bit and bring that into the photo a little bit. Good job.

nice face and smile , relaxed into the camera - but the ear cut off is not working well , seen like this the face feels a bit too close

Tightly cropped; nice lighting angle; nice smile and teeth - but it doesn't "grab" me. I'm sure your model will be delighted, though. Any more examples?
