Ohmygoodness! What a heartstopper! She is precious! I have a feeling she picked out her own Halloween costume -- she looks like she would totally revel in being the little princess :) I love this photo!
Nice work in eliminating that background and letting the 'Little Lady' shine thru. It's a tad thin on landscape orientation - yes, it fits, but the ratio isn't typical. That's ust a minor nit. This is a photograph that she will treasure years from now, and that should be a large part of having a portrait taken - yes? Overall, nicely done. Good luck in the challenge.
I think the background, though very nicely out of focus, spoils this a bit. I guess it was just an opportune time to take the photo, but an ordinary backdrop would have been perfect.
