There is a bit too much green in the middle and doesn't fit any of the framing rules nicely.

That said it's okay, not really exciting but not boring, kind of somber but the framing is just uncomfortable.

Don't be afraid to ask for an expression.

A distracting strap is showing.

The straight-on lighting is not giving the face much shape.

There are too many over-exposed areas.  Perhaps you were shooting at a high ISO, making it contrasty.

Maybe you intended the white area on the left to be a counterpoint to the white in the lower right, but I think the overall image would look better if you cropped off the white on the left, leaving the green background.

Good model selection. The editing needs improvement. The eyes and skin are over-processed. The whites of the eyes are too white and look unnatural. Eye color is too saturated as well. Her skin is too smooth and lacks detail. The white values of her wardrobe are blown out and losing detail. I think you are over-saturating your photos in general. Her skin tones appear to have way too much red and yellow in them. Plus, the background isn't really helping the image.

This shot is working better. Editing is much more natural.


Keep in mind that you are shooting a portrait. A horizontal composition is not the best choice for portraits. The human face and body are vertical in nature, so frame the subject vertically. Have the model take a couple steps away from the background in order to create a bit of background bokeh, creating depth in the image. The viewer wants to see the essence of the model's personality, not the details of the wood backdrop. The horizontal framing hides the details of the subject's hair, shoulders and cleavage...all qualities that both men and women are interested in.

Keep at it.
