An interesting pose and use of the lamp. Considering the setting and the state of undress of the model, the thrusting diagonal line of the lamp pole could psychologically be interpreted as phallic in implication.

I suppose that distances were close but notice how large her forward knee seems compared to her face and look how small the distant lamp looks. This perspective distortion is sometimes used for great effect, but I think it works against you here. The two solutions are to use a longer focal length lens at a greater distance (space permitting) or really creative post processing in Photo Shop using the distort-lens correction series of controls along with others. The latter usually requires extensive extra space on all margins of the original photo to allow later cropping after the space has been warped to modify the perspective.
