I think the first photo looks as if the highlights got blown (maybe in the red channel only) and as such her face looks a little hot. Just out of interest, have you tried a full B&W conversion on the photo?
Personally I would have preferred the people in front of her who are silhouetted to not be there, or at least to not be as prominent in the photo.
Also, maybe I have a rude mind but I am a little distracted by what she's pouring
The second photo looks too blurry... you were shooting in very challenging situations and I doubt you'd get a clearer shot unless you used a tripod next time.
I'm also wondering why there's an iphone (or similar) charging in the photo?
