Beautiful model.

You have shot this pretty model in a superb manner and maintained wonderful details and skin tone with very great colors on the background also.

The model eyes are attractive and do make the right contact with the viewers.

Thank you for sharing it and wishing you all of the best.

Antoni,

In response to your question about the framing of this portrait ...

As a general "rule" a vertical subject is shot in a vertical format unless there is a compelling reason to shoot it horizontally.

Your subject should have more room in front of her than behind. This allows her to be facing into the picture, not out of it. You want to compositionally balance the left and right sides of the photograph. The compositional "rule" for this suggests that you position the tip of the subject's nose in the vertical center of the photograph. This little rule almost always works well. At least, it gives you a very good starting point to position your subject.

It is often said that rules are made to be broken. I find good photographers break compositional "rules" to accomplish a purpose -- for a specific reason. They don't just do it to try to be different or because they can. 

I think this portrait looks right heavy and she feels off balance -- like she may fall out of the frame.

Nice shot,

Mark
