Emily is right, I would be hard pressed to find anything wrong with this picture. It’s very nice. If it seems a little dark on your end you could try out selective masking with a gradient overlay or screen at like 75 percent opacity.
Basically, using an Overlay or screen if overlay or screen is in Photoshop terms– would brighten the lighter tones in the picture giving it greater contrast between hard white and dark white–or within via a gradient overlay. The mask would protect the darker tones enabling you to create a greater contrast.
Though of course like anything in photography–create to amuse yourself–if other people don’t like it, they don’t know what ‘good’ is… well my opinion anyways, especially when nobody is waving a 20 dollar bill under my nose.
Thanks Emily! This was a really fun photo shoot. Everyone involved had a really good time. It looks a little dark on my laptop but other than that, I’m really happy with it.

Still love it though.

This is really great Jeff!! The composition, light and processing is terrific.
