Cute pose though! Keep working at it. Kids of that age are generally pretty squiggly, but it looks like she might have sat still for 2,3,4 seconds or so!!! Soooo glad to see that you shot this as a vertical!!!!! (One of the greatest weaknesses of many beginning portrait artists is the strong tendency to want to shoot almost every shot in horizontal or "landscape" orientation...).

Focus and don't be afraid to use a flash.Nice start and she is a cutie. Welcome!

Pretty light and expression! Just try to nail the focus a bit better next time.

Focusing is a problem for me that I really need to work on. My kids think its funny that mommy has a camera and don't seem to take me seriously as a photographer. My daughter ran off the second after I took the picture. haha Thanks so much for the feedback!!

What camera? What focusing modes(s) do you use? What lens, etc.
