One day i'll get a new lens and hopefully do better justice on Meghann's behalf.

You don't need a better lens Maria and you are doing Meghann justice!

Great portrait.

Lovely capture, Maria. I like the overall softness you have added to it. - mary.

Great portrait of Meghann. I like the nice lights and her interesting expression. I also like the way as her hair frames her lovely face. This is a really fine portrait shot.
Did you use natural lights only?

You really don't need a new lens, Maria. This focal length is perfect for a head shot.

Another is a lovely series. Isn't it fun to look back on previous images of Meghann to see how she's changed? Her expression is quite different in this one.
Best wishes,

Andrew

I echo the other comments, a new lens may add something, but you have an eye and take such wonderful shots.
This is no exception.

Thank you Gabor, yes just natural light and the p.p. was done in PicMonkey i used curves and touch up tools for shadows and blemishes.

Thank you Andrew, yes when i look back she was just a little girl, she's now growing into a lovely young woman and seems so natural in front of a camera, i hope it lasts

It looks like a professional shot of a young actress, so very well done.
Best regards, John
