The eyes and the smile make this a joy to see. The high key is great for this too.

I'm glad she decided to act like a goof instead of a sleeping beauty - her expression is what makes this so endearing!

Wow Crystal, this is one of your best shots IMHO! Congrats on your nice finish and score though I think it is way underrated!! This is a shot that must score over 7 and get a ribbon. Don't know why it didn't do better.

no her shirts isn't pulled up, that's a sheet. it was supposed to be a sleeping beauty shot but she was acting like a goof and didn't want to sleep so the idea changed but I forgot to move the sheet. sorry.

... and it's pure joy to look at this shot! Such a joyful and relaxed look on her face. I love your idea and execution. Looks like you had to spend a lot of time to make her hair look like this. Lighting is excellent. This shot really stands out against the others in the challenge.

Very cute shot! Nice composition and expression.

Ok so I predicted several children and flowers in this challenge, so I will be a little critical. This picture was done well, the only suggestion I have is leave some colored highlights , flowers, eye color, and possibility a little blush on the cheeks.

Nice! I dont know if it`s my imagination but I am watching a weird hair line up her head. Is she wearing a wig? (I guess... that`s a lot of hair! jaja) Beautifull picture, Pretty model, I like the flowers in the hair, Good luck!

This one is very pretty, and I bet the litle girl just loved having those flowers in her beautyful hair.
9 from me :)
