Looks like a painting. For composition-I'd shift her to the right for 3rds (more blue in sky to left).

The colours and contrasts are nice and strong -- you've got the strong horizontal of the railing, the red vertical of the dress, and very happy-looking subject.

 

The main issue (as I see it) is that the right-hand side of the portrait is a bit washed out (the blue of the sky fades to bright white and there's some blurring between the subject's left arm and the sky).

 

To be brutally honest, her smile is also a teensy bit scary... I feel uncharitable for saying this since I can only assume that she's extraordinarily happy, but I suppose what I'm responding to is that it *seems* slightly forced. If it were toned down just slightly (not so much that she looks like a bored model) then it would seem more natural and the photo would be that much more enjoyable.

 

Still, a nice portrait with striking features.
