Need some guidance
So this is an image i shot this evening of my daughter. I have full intensions of upgrading to a better camera and lenses before i start taking clients but my question here is, is this a good look or am i way off the mark?

WRONG TITLE
I loaded this into a group called The Art of Meddling, and it was rejected. The picture is a very good example of what you get when you meddle.

STORMY WEATHER (trees)
Glad I was already in my car before the heavens opened. It went incredibly dark, but it didn't last for very long, and the sun was soon out again.

LUCY IN THE SKY
I just messed about with the photograph of a luscious, large green tree against a nice blue background with the clouds, but I decided that was boring, so this is what I did to it.

INTENTIONAL CAMERA MOVEMENT OR INTENTIONAL BLUR
I'm going to be trying this again because I rather like the outcome of this on my lavender in the garden, which has finished for the summer now, so I couldn't go and do it again.

Its a very good picture. You really got her emotions to come out.
Thank you much appreciated
I think it is beautiful. You have any eye for organic beauty. These types of photos are good for adding small surprises (if that is your client's thing, if not good for your personal memories). See example, I used a dragonfly overlay.
Awesome thanks for the input that is a nice touch
