2.47 - "Needs Work" 

Nikon d500 | Sigma 50mm Art | Natural Light - No Modifiers

For this lovely lady's professional headshot. I thought things came together perfectly for this. I shot on location ,so being able to find a background that helped her blue shirt pop and also looked high end helped a lot overall.

But this is one of my favorite pictures because her smile is just infectious.

It is a very nice photograph. However, I feel like the lamp shades left and right pull attention away from the subject. I really hesitate suggesting a crop of other people's images, but in my opinion, cropping just barely to the inside of each of them creates a more compelling image. That way, the brightest area of the image is confined to her face.
