I'm not in portrait photography at all, but I like to try. Feel free to comment!

Sometimes it feels good to change up the usual, right?

This a good shot, short depth of field keeps your eye firmly on the model. The model has a wonderful energy in her eyes and smile, very inviting. I especially like the reflection in her sunglasses picking up the flowers in front of her, yet the reflected color closely matches her shirt, did you do that in post or did that happen naturally?

My only issues: I wish the white flowers below her right hand weren't so close to blown, and the shoe behind her head wasn't so bright. I also wonder how this would look as a square 1:1 crop to eliminate a bit of the bottom of the image.

Love it ~

Thank you very much for the detailed comment Joe and I'm glad you love it!
It certainly looks good also in square format, and these reflections on sunglasses are natural.
Shoes and parts of flowers were not in the shadow of scrim, so they are brighter, so close to blown what you nicely noticed. Larger scrim would be solved the problem.
