What a beauty. She does look angelic. Her pose is perfect. Your lighting is excellent with the slightly muted background making her stand out so well. Great focus and framing.

Children make wonderful subjects for photography. They can be so uninhibited . This pretty girl seems to be enjoying all the attention she is getting. I love the expression on her face. Good luck in the contest!

Comment from Browncat
A very nice portrait, well cropped considering the crowded event. Your software corrections/enhancements to her face give it a "sculptural" feeling that would be more effective, to me, if you had given the same treatment to part of her arm. Nevertheless, it's a nice memory of the day.

Beautiful child, perfectly framed. You did a great job with the lights and shadows, not letting any part be washed out or too dark. Nice pose, with appropriate skin tones and highlights.

Comment from Susan F. M. T.
Meg,
A wonderful picture of Alexa dressed in her white dress & veil held on with the sparkling head band on this very special day when she will receive her First Holy Communion, a day she will remember for the rest of her life as I remember mine! Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Alexa looks so pretty for her First Communion Mary Eileen. Love the way they've done up her hair.
Focus on her is nice. I like the head turned...hands clasped. The light falling on her face is a tad harsh. Not sure if that's you (contrast) or the spot she happened to be standing in?? Your white are wonderful...nicely done there. Vignette may be just a tad harsh too....Alexa is so fair....perhaps that's partly why I think it looks a bit harsh.
Regardless though Mary Eileen...I wish you the best w/ it in the contest.

Thank you. She was standing right under one of the church lights so I am afraid I wasn't able to control it
-
That's exactly what I thought it might have been Mary Eileen. Very welcome for the review!
-
I am trying to redo this a little differently with not so much harshness...wish me luck
-
Oh good luck Mary Eileen. I'll keep an eye out for new version!

Love portraits and this is a good one. The background with the vignette really draws the eye to the subject and the lighting is great. Perfect little model, love the golden hair.

The clarity of this picture is so good. I love how you outlined her on her special day to make it more vibrant. This is a great way to document such an important day. She will have these memories for years to come.
