Be nice to me as this is from my first ever photo session. The photograph is of my daughter, Eilidh, who kindly posed as my first model. I know there are one or two things that could be improved and maybe the style is a bit generic but I'm pretty pleased with it as a first attempt.

Critique from the studio buffs would be greatly appreciated.

Looks good to me. You have a very beautiful daughter. Bet she's delighted with this.

Great shot, just one small thing, try not to interlock fingers like that it can make the hands seem to have about 20 fingers and look bigger than they actually are.

You are so lucky to have such a beautiful daughter and that she models for you. Looks a wonderful portrait. Her foot, toes, seem to be a different colour from her foot, why is that?.......Sandy

You used light in a very interesting way..with her white shirt, and white background, and by slightly overexposing, you abstracted all elements not white, and brought them to the "front". Nice photo. And, you do have a beautiful daughter.

Firstly congratulations on a very beautiful daughter, the Titian hair is superb and you've managed to use reds with clashing with Eilidh's tresses. I'm no expert on studio lighting I'll leave that to others. For me it's a lovely relaxed portrait of a confident young woman,let's hope the world is kind to her.

Many thanks for the kind comments and votes and special thanks to podgod for his observations on the interlocked fingers. Definately one to watch for the future.

Sandy, Eilidh's toes are a different colour because she had tights on - one of the things that I had already picked up on (too late on the day though).

Eilidh will also be pleased with your comments on her beauty, something she finds hard to believe!

agree with the comments above,but everything taken into account it is a great first go at it,getting the sitter at ease is hard.....can take a lot no matter who it is....try doing stupid stuff like rolling around on the floor or jumping up and down sounds crazy but works !!
