Very cute picture. If I were to critique at all I would suggest less skin softening, and more/brighter lights in the background.

Well, I think both are good. Perhaps perfection is in the eyes of the beholder? Or something like that. Anyway, I did say, "less skin softening", not, "None at all"! Stuff like this is purely subjective, to each their own. I think she has naturally great skin compared to a lot of the kids I photograph.
