Beautiful lighting! I love the outline on the right, and ofcourse the hair (I'm a motion blur freak). A slower shutter speed might emphasize the wind even more. I would mess around with the cropping to make the hair more of the subject. You could crop the bottom off so everything below the eyes is cropped. I'm not trying to tell you hat to do with your images, I'm just trying to help you push the composition.

Nice portrait and beautiful tones. She seemed a bit reluctant to get her shot taken but it created a wonderful expression. Good luck!
