Lovely catch lights in her eyes. Great shot. What lens did you use?

A very professional portrait, lighting in particular is gentle and pushes the viewer towards the eyes, my only caveat is the way the image is cropped.
You could crop lower into the frame, remove the dead space above her head, at the same time crop away some of the left hand space, centred portraits very rarely work as they leave no room for the eye to scan

I'm not sure the lens has such great importance in the capture of this photograph, the skill is with the photographer, obviously

Hi Karl, my fault entirely, i didn't leave any room for a crop and i think a crop on this just didn't look right,we live and learn but thank you for your comment and cc
