Nicely done. The flash might be just a bit hot, but nothing you couldn't easily pull down in post. Don't forget to level!
 
Agree that it may be a little hot for fill. Was this taken with the built in flash? (It looks like it with the catch lights)

If so, I steal Derrel's suggestion to shoot it in portrait orientation. This will show more of the subject and also move the catchlight around and will also give you some depth (shadow) to the face.
 
Thanks for the replies :)

Ahh yes not even remotely level!

I already pulled down the exposure .5 stop so my flash is probably 2/3-1stop too hot here.

I double checked my exif info and I was using my SB700 here, albeit in the hotshoe.
