C&C per req:
Cute; while I'm not fond of the 'star effect' it is somewhat appropriate for these shots. The child seems slightly under-exposed and I can't help thinking some fill light from image left would have really helped things 'pop' a bit more. I would suggest cropping a bit off the RH side to mover her just a bit more off centre, and leveling the image as well. The second image doesn't strike me as well; without the connection of the child's face, it really seems to lack impact. One other suggestion I will make is to try and shoot with a longer focal length and as large an aperture as possible in order to reduce depth of field. In fact, while it's something I would normally shy away from, I wonder if apply a little subtle gaussian blur to the background might not help.
Just my $00.02 worth - your mileage may vary.

JacaRanda said:Yes, Miss Piper is just as cute as can be!!! I can't offer any technical critique, but I think you have done a very nice job on these. I feel like there could be a few more frames. The next one showing her elevated off the ground (back turned to us), the next one slight more elevated and the last....poof she is gone.
I really see fairytell written all over these shots. Kudos!

The_Traveler said:Just the nature of the subject suggests more of a diffuse look to this.
less green, less detail, etc.
