Facundo,


Justina is a very pretty girl. You have focused well on her eyes. She has good eye contact with the camera (viewer). Her skin tone looks good and your composition is excellent. The background is nicely out of focus and she is well separated from it. The backlight helps to separate her hair from the background and gives a nice highlight to her hair.


Your contrast looks good, but I think her eye make-up is too heavy. I makes her eyes look a bit zombi like. Lighter eye shadow and a small line of eyeliner under her eyes to frame them and make her eyes stand out would look better. Her eyes look like they were done for a fashion shoot. It just doesn't work with this portrait.


I like the rather flat lighting, but she could use a bit more lipstick and blush to give more definition to her face. It could be that your fill is too evenly matched to your main light (or that your fill is at your camera and is your main light)

.
She does have two catch lights in each eye. One catch light per eye is preferred.


I can not quite figure out her expression. I can't tell if she looks startled, a little afraid, annoyed or even a bit angry. She does have her left hand in a fist which usually indicates anger. She looks like she is gripping her hair which may indicate intense anger. Her right hand looks like it doesn't know what the left hand is doing? :)

 
The fingers on her right hand look quite chubby. Avoid having the back of the hand towards the camera. The edge (side) of the hand towards the camera is thinning, feminine and graceful.


Your name is not part of the photograph. It would be quite proper to place is on a mat surrounding your photograph.


Nice shot,


Mark

Excellent shot with a marvelous model! Nice tones and composition. I agree the lighting is a little flat but I like how the skin of her face contrasts with the background. Congrats and best regards, Alain
