Greetings from the Critique Club!
I love this shot, I have no idea if it was staged or not but it's a beautiful, thoughtful shot and the sepia works very well with this, though a touch, just a small touch more contrast would make it work a little better to me. I like the wide vertical line on the right but the thinner one on the left is a bit distracting to me. The composition, the cropping is close to perfect. A slightly higher crop on the top, so the top of her head isn't cut off would make this perfect for me. It's so close now that I would like to see the rest of the hair.
Black and white, with a higher contrast would also make this a great shot. Not much else to say except looking at your final score, you were robbed!
Good Luck In Future Challenges!
