great job, you've done really good in natural light. The framing is great specially with these interesting background.
and about retouch, its really natural and great, i mostly like the color correction and light recovery on face.

I thought that when the face is dark like here there is nothing you can do...well you definitely can ... great job!

The colors are very nice. I love the hair as well. I noticed the closest strand of hair is brighter and more orange than the rest, which is good for separation.

What do you use for post production?

Love the cool tone you went with to compliment her red hair.

Love it - great work!

I love how you took the tones more blue, it makes her hair really pop

Love the way the color tones pops the subject and the circular window framing her. I really really want to see her eyes a lot more!

I love how everyone in the comments adds something technical as if they totally understand what he does in his pictures. 'The closest strand of hair is brighter than the rest, which is good for separation' Spoiler alert, he probably didn't even think about that. It's just his creative vision.

just have to comment awesome photo so powerful! you really used the background to your advantage
