Beautiful woman and I love the way you've framed her in the window and with the tree. I do find this image to be too busy. Though I would imagine this to be your intention, I don't like her distant stare as I find it to be almost vacant, as if she's not looking at anything in particular. Also, she is wearing too much black that is all blending together.
at first notice the border is distracting...the photo itself is very nice...has a nice candid feel to it...you model doesn't appear to be posing, but rather just standing there waiting for something...very relaxed, natural feel to it
Hmmmmm....I think you're on to a good idea here but would want to see more poses from different angles. The model looks impatient, or bored, or something. The lighting in the background behind the window needs a lift in the corner, her jacket sleeve gets lost there.
I like this wider portrait that shows some of her environment - it makes me think that perhaps she is an artist, this lady who lives in a beautifully decorated loft apartment.
Nice, natural light. A closer shot of the subject might have been better though. There's a bit too much in the composition for a portrait. Is that a lace-leaf maple?
Nicely balanced composition and complimentary lighting. It is a pity that it is tilted in the lower half (down to left), maybe a change in camera position might have helped (squarer to the wall). Use of the tree in the background is very clever.
I really like this shot. It makes me wonder what she's thinking. I can't decide if that tree adds to the photo or distracts. Still, I like that it seems like a naturally caught pose.
