Default Senior Photo Critique

Here is my favorite photo from a senior photo secession I did a few weeks ago.
Let me know what you think and if there is something you see I could do different that I didn't catch. (Looking at the photo now I see that I should of had her fix her hair that is on the near shoulder to me.) Anything else...?
Thanks.

I really like the contrast of color between her sweater and the wall. It's probably the wall color being reflected but she seems a bit too orange. Did you do some work on the near eye? It seems a little off to me.

Thanks. Yeah I like the two different color contrasts too.
You are right about the slight tint of orange on the skin. It's probably a reflection off the wall.
No I haven't done any editing to the photo. I'm not sure what you mean about the eye closet to the camera.

Very nice I would do some pp on the lens glare... Keep an eye for those next time so you don't have to worry about it later. I little crop from the right will be good, that will take her out of the center.

Cool thanks.

I would do some pp on the glasses lens but I don't have any editing software. I only have iPhoto and that won't do a whole lot. Lol

The cropping on the right side was a good idea too. Thanks.
