If she wants people to sign it, is she okay with people writing on her face? Just thinking. Hmm. Because the background is darker so you probably wouldn't see much with a black sharpie?

[StormDriven]

it will be matted or whatever like this.....

Yeah, I think that works.

Verrrry nice!

I did one of these before and you will be able to make the border bigger, I suppose it depends on how many will be there...

Yes that picture is very nice. Nothing to complain about!

[canonnoob]

honestly her face seems alittle soft and underexposed.. I would bring the pp back and then print... i think it will look good however

I can't see the image because our Mickey Mouse IS&T people block flickr accts. If the background is darker than the subject, you could always get a silver sharpie and have them sign. I've done that before. Personally, I like silver anyway.

It looks like you used on-camera flash, please correct me if I am wrong. Either way I feel the light is harsh and not flattering. Catchlights are directly on her pupils.

Shadow under the chin is not flattering. Perhaps you can fix this in PP/posing/makeup.

[StormDriven]

She certainly doesnt like the first one, too close up! So we have decided on this one...
