Damned fine shot! Definitely underrated. Great choice of color for the background as it complements her eyes very well.
A couple of things that might help:
Try seeing how it looks to bring her away from the wall by a few feet. It might help to eliminate some shadows and make her 'pop' a little more.
Try pushing your exposure up just a hair (+1/3 stop?)
Of course, I like the 'look up' thing too.. There's lots of hidden beauty in that suggestion...
For tips on using adjustment layers, I learned a bucketload from www.radiantvista.com and their video tutorials... SO helpful! You will NEVER go back. Start with the big 130MB one..
I then made an action to create all those layers for me and I just choose which one I want to play with... I usually do layers, curves for midtone contrast, curves for color casts and hue/saturation.

Very clever idea, that works well for the challenge..... You daughter is a beautiful model and looks great. I like the green background, as it suits the model, and is a good constart background color..... |

This is a nice little portrait. The main thing that I don't like is the fact that her head is down which emphasises a slight double chin. If she had of been looking up a bit it would of worked a lot better. The other thing that would improve it would be just to adjust the contrast a little to make it pop out a bit. If you're using Photoshop you could use an adjustment layer with levels just to help that a bit and still be within the basic rules. Well done. |

Good color combinations in this image. The lenscaps could use some more flair perhaps, but again, I like the black, green background combined with the skin color and honest expression! |

Nice idea----the shadows from the straps are not good --also the lighting needs some improvement |

nice photo, good color, expression, composition, only thing is I would have removed the necklace, but great quality overall and the background matches her eyes really nicely, 10 |

This shot makes me find, and find again for the lens cap. The use of this generic caps struggle you a bit. |
