I'm not sure about the highlight on her face.

She's a beauty with a great smile, beautiful eyes and captivates the viewer. Great bokeh.

I can live with the hot part in her hair, but her cheek looks posterized and the separation between light and dark is too sharp. Maybe soften the edge?

A negative - the gap between her undershirt and sweater; it's a bright area that pulls the eyes.

Clyde, shooting a person this close always presents problems for me. I think "GE" makes some fine points. She has that natural beauty and such an engaging smile! Facial tones kill me.
But I am enjoying her beauty here!

When you look at a portrait, first and foremost are the eyes which in this case are perfect. If it was in a studio I would be more critical but outdoors I'm fine with it. Only thing I would do is use the healing or clone tool to remove the small glare on the nose.

per R_O_L_O...................
Now viewing on a 30"calibrated monitor......and was posting comment from a 16" MacBookPro laptop.
Yes I must amend my post....if in a studio....I would be far more critical. I love natural light on a natural beauty. You did her proud with that! She is a natural beauty.

PS Could it be toned down on the right side(our right)...maybe? But darn it looks great here!
