What a beautiful child and a great model to boot! I like the softness and the way her hair is gently blowing to one side. I am no expert on Ben's work so I will not try to draw a comparison other than you both have precious children in your people shots. One tiny quibble is I find the arms of the chair are so white and so wide that they do take my eye away from the child. I wonder if cropping it tight on the right (her left) side might have kept her more the focal point but again, that is just a matter of personal preference and you would have lost that interesting object (old bridge/pier?) Good job not blowing out the water. Nicely done.
