I used 2 Bowens flashes that I rented over the weekend (first time real lighting like this), A softbox right in front of her and the other one high up, at left (her right). I actually took only two pictures of her.. The other one had more emotion but I liked the simplisity in this one. The background is not the best :D but I think it looks ok here, compared to how bad it really looks ;)
I kinda felt bad doing pp on her face sence she´s only 14 years old... But this being a compaticion and all ;) Anyway I did a litle healing and then added gaussian blur apart from her eyes and lips.
Any critique or comments apreciated

Blah. Nice picture, but there's nothing striking about this picture. She looks pissed about something.

Good Luck

Sweet photo, but I would crop more from one side or the other. I think it would look better to have the subject either in the center or more to the right. Having her so close to the center w/o being IN the center gives it more the look of a snapshot.

I love the lighting and colors here! Something about the way the reddish whisps of her hair is lit, and then the highlights in her eyes... VERY nice photo! Beautiful!
