Paige's booth portrait
Recently, I taught an Off Camera Flash class. Paige was my model for the class. We were outdoors but it started to rain. Luckily, a nearby restaurant let us conduct the class in their dining room.

Nice work, I only think that it is a little over exposed and the crop could be a little tighter but otherwise nice job!
Hey Ashlie! First of all, props to you for pursuing your dream! Secondly, the image. I like the emotion behind it, almost like she is cut off from part of the world. In my opinion, it is a bit bright, especially since you are trying to convey a sort of sad emotion. One more thing that may be worth experimenting is cropping it "wrong." Don't leave enough head room for her to look into, contrary to the "rules." Instead, have her look out of the frame and have some space behind her. This might put the viewer on edge and again convey that she is cut off.
Overall I really like the image and I think that the concept is excellent. Keep on shooting!
