Beautiful depth of field. Nicely exposed. The skin looks so natural. 6 from me.

She looks cold. The black in the back of her dress is something I noticed immediately. I am not sure if it is part of the dress, but it throws it off. The lighting looks a little flat also. But I love the idea and with a couple of adjustments, I think this picture could really have some WOW factor!

Good bokeh good sharpness and lighting i feel the models placing of the hands and arms arent quite right i think a better angle too shoot from and try different position with the model might help ..well done
