I like this pose and expression! Excuse me while I ignore your photography for a moment, Otto, and say that the confidence and serenity Christan conveys here is fantastic.
Otto - excellent use of available light, good sharpnes and composition. I'm not gonna pretend that I'm a big fan of your frame, it's very distracting, but ignore that and this shot is proof of the impressive skills you are both developing, photographer and model.
Lovely work!

I like the frame too
But be aware not many people do
Time starts to switch from automatic to manual mode and improve the DOF
Last warning ;-)

To use the tissue as a frame texture is good! That photo look autumnal... Crazy to see it was taken in January! It have a good style... Nice presence :)

Lovely pose by Christan, a combination of threatening and sultry. Lovely colour and light and very artistic framework. Well done Otto and TFS,
David

Clever idea to carry the pattern of your wifes shirt to the frame, with everything in the BG and the patterns on her shirt it has made the photo a little busy. I would have made the BG more plain. That way your pretty wife doesn't disappear in the all of the colors and patterns. I have tried to do a WS to show you what I meant, it works a little but didn't turn out quite as well as I'd hope it would but it will give you an idea what I meant.
The photo itself is good, the pose is nice, the subject beautiful, good strong clarity and detail.
