To me the flash setting seemed to be a little strong. It looks like you stuck her in front of a background. Some people like the look you have, but personally I don't. I prefer it to appear as if no flash was used what so ever. One way to help that is to back out and not use such a tight crop on her.

hello. cool shots. i would recommend sticking to natural light during the golden hour (or whatever they call it). i agree with the dinosaurio that it looks kind of fake backdrop. i would use artificial light or reflector to fill some nasty shadows, but not as fill...
