ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/40 sec.

This is a shot featuring none other than my sister, Kelsey. It was a spur of the moment type of shot, only got in 2. She thinks the braces make her looks stupid, but for a shot of a normal 12 year old I think it adds to the picture.

The lighting is natural and a bit dark, but in my opinion nice for a shot like this. No cropping but the levels, brightness, and contrast were adjusted.

Would have liked it more if some fill lighting was used on the face. Nice picture

Good portrait. I would have prefered a shallower DOF or different background but still a top photo - 9.

Cute photo, nice model. Perhaps a little more fill lighting to add some brighter catchlights.

Nice tonal range. Face might be a liiiiiitle too dark in that shadow, but otherwise great.

Harsh exposure. Fair attempt.

You have chosen a very nice setting. The wooden fence is the finishing touch in the photo. Your model would do well on the front of a magazine although I think that her face is a little underexposed. Maybe flash fill could improve this.

I think there is too much shadow on her face. Otherwise a good shot.
Crop seems to be ok.
Composition also ok.

A nicely thought out pic. The title is very suitable and I like the background in this shot.

I don't know the magazine but this seems about right for the title. There's space for a logo at top, that's a plus. A little harder would be cover copy because of the brightness of the light coming between the columns but it could be done.
