The shadow of the hand seems to detract from what is otherwise a good straightforward portrait. 5

Just my thoughts, but I would like it better if the neckles was at the bottom of the chain loop. The portrait is still done very well.

Nice composition and a nice shot. I would like to have seen the kind lighting that is used to fill in shadowed areas on portraits. (I'm technically challenged in this area(lighting), so please forgive me. I don't know how to DO that kind of lighting, but I know what I would like to see! Does that make sense??

Nice shot. The shadows are a bit harsh - maybe a bit of light bounced back into the frame would have helped? Composition is excellent. Well done.

Nice shot with a lot of good features. I don't like the heavy shadow under her nose, chin, or hand. Maybe use a reflector to get some light up in there would have helped.
