I think you did a good job here Agoes, the lighting is nicely balanced overall.

Some unwanted shadows on her face - if you look closely you will see a triangular shadow under her left eye (our right) and another strong-edged shadow by her cheek. There is also a shadow visible under her nose. I am being very picky here, but these are details to watch out for.

I am guessing those shadows were cast by the overhead light - perhaps if you soften it, or move it further away, the shadows cast will disappear.

The black at the bottom is the shutter of the camera opening or closing at the time the flash went! This becomes more of a risk as shutter speeds get faster, which is why I usually shoot at 1/125s in a studio setting.

If you slow the shutter to 1/125s and open the aperture to perhaps f/7.1 you will also be able to reduce the ISO to around 200 for a better result.

Please tell your model she is beautiful and did a wonderful job!

Hi Agoes,
It is good to see you exploring other genres. As someone who is clueless regarding portraits and studio lighting, I am very impressed. Good techniques, your model is sweet and beautiful. Best regards
