Such a sweet capture. Great pose and the lighting everywhere (except that sunray shining on her hair/cheek) is great. Nice job.

Very cute model. Like the composition and DOF. Maybe a more dramatic light (not natural light but stronger direct one) would have made the photo better IMO. Nice job.

Great finish on this one Kim! You have a precious daughter and she's such a sweetee in this image. Be sure to keep this as this would come in handy when she's all grown up ;)

Now we're talking - too bad about the sun ray falling on the litttle girl's hair. Godd capture - looks sincere.

If it were dark and just a little lighting would have made this picture better IMO. The bed, bedframe, white wall and the light partly on the hair and chin puts it a bit off.

Great shot. Try and prevent the hotspots from window lighting. Try not to crop off parts of her head (unless you're cropping off a lot to get the face). I actually would've preferred to see a closer crop over her shoulder with her hands and face only. Smaller DOF to remove the distracting bedpost.

I don't like the lighting or the crop. The bed is a little distracting too. Good idea and subject tho.

precious - well executed shot and the childs pose is perfect - great skin tones - wonderful detail - I really like this shot as it puts me in mind of the simple and beautiful faith of a child

Lovely - the quilt and bedframe add to the simple innocence of the picture.

I think this is very attractive.

lighting is unbalanced (her hair and her lower cheek are burning out), background of the bedpost is distracting. crop on the right-hand side is a bit odd, as it seems she is floating, perhaps crop a little into and use her body as a frame.
for a better effect, i would have taken this picture at night time to give the idea that she is saying her prayers BEFORE waking up which is more customary than after you wake up.

A very sweet image. My favorite part is the light falling in her hair and cheek.

Sweetie!!! Adorable expression on the face, great composition and soft skin. I am not sure whether the sunlight on her hair enhances the shot, though.

Edit: Sorry, I was looking for the right expression.

Nice concept but finding the light shaft too distracting
