This is a very charming image, and I am always encouraged to see this type of portrait on a site that generally features women made with ivory or plastic or whatever it is they use for glamour these days. This portrait does what a portrait should do - it makes complete strangers care about the person within the image, and stays within the viewer's consciousness long after it has been viewed. The model?s eyes and her wonderful smile grab our attention, as her happiness is so genuine. The curve of her fingers seems slightly self-conscious, which when countered with the complete lack of it in her expression only makes the image all the more appealing. Her freckles, the stud below her lip, and her earrings all bring the face to life, and the wonderful tones of both her hand and the oval of her face are beautifully framed by the darkened background and her clothing. Great portrait, great smile, great tones, well done, and thanks for sharing it with us. Your model should be very pleased-
