Her shoulders seem a little tense did you tell her to pose like this or was it candid?

[Mzaki]

It was candid. My daughter is a natural poser.

It looks like you used an on board flash and in my opinion that's part of the problem.

*disclaimer I'm not a pro*

Thr flash used eas Canon EX 430 II with Lumiquest softbox.

Ok, well a few things (again I'm not even close to a pro lol). it looks soft and I see you had a low shutter speed. Because you were using a flash you should have been able to up that a quite a bit. I don't like the flash point in her eyes. I have no external lighting but i can kind of get around this with my onboard flash buy using my homemade bounce to bounce it off the ceiling.

Next time focus on the eyes, they seem a little soft. Color balance appears off.... Try a little more candid shot and not so tense. Let her have fun! Use a fan on her hair and have her play fashion model. Works great with kids.

1 on the focus and color balance. I know it can be difficult to get the focus, composition, exposure all perfect in a candid shot of kids since they hold still for .00002 sec at a time.
