Great contact with the viewer and you've picked up good catchlights in her eyes.

Overall, it feels like its trying to be low key, but somehow comes across as a bit muddy, or lacking in contrast where it really matters. The hair to her nose is a bit compositionally distracting, the way it merges.

Could have been a bit brighter, still a good shot though.

I don't think the title fits, but I don't know the model.

In desperate need of a levels adjustment in photoshop. Otherwise a fantastic portrait.

Wonderful expression. Good details and focus from what I can see. I really wish this was brighter as it seems to be substantially underexposed. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

This is very good. I womder what it would look like if you brightened the eyes just a bit.
The pose and hair are excellent.

Beautiful expression. Perhaps would like to see a little more contrast.
