Black and White Model
-
I am not capable of commenting on the lighting, I will leave for the experts (although it looks good to me). But two things I would say on the shot. The left elbow has been cut in the crop, which is probably the first thing I noticed. Also the left eye seems to have merged into the eyelashes, this probably wouldn’t be as noticable in a colour version, but is the B&W.
These are just picky things in an otherwise lovely shot, great looking model.
I just think youv’e pushed the contrast a bit to much here — I always process detailed areas like the eyes much more subtley and separately
I think you should crop more severely into the image -even into the forehead and then your lost elbow looks more intentional
and lastly – the fabric of her top is shiny and for me I’m not a fan of shiny fabrics .. just so diatracting for a portrait ..
anyway = hope thats helpful :)

Nice image and model
The darkness of left eye area and as PD Barbs said the merging of the eye and eye lashes – could be the processing of the image? also the motif on the clothing unless it was required for advertising? I too agree the slight cropping of elbow looks accidental and is distracting – a more deliberate crop further removing th empty space to the left might help frame the face better
