When I compare this image to your recent postings, it is nice enough, but definitely no where near the quality level of the others.

1. The background is quite distracting - observe what your background looks like, not just your subject.

2. The shadows on your subjects face are distracting and take away from her face. This is a shot where some fill light would have solved a lot of problems. As you did not use one, dodging and burning is all one can do. Practice this skill (a lot) and you can use it to improve images like this one.

3. The white balance looks a bit too cool for my like and is something that can be countered by warming up the image.

4. The strap at the right and the top of the dress on the bottom are quite awkward. Look at cropping those distractions out.

5. If you want to add a signature or logo, do it somewhere it is not a distraction.
