Yes the square crop is very good, but what makes the shot (except her expression, of course) is the coloring, IMO. Is that the color out of the camera, or did you change the saturation or color temperature abit ? Soft tones of face, hair, background, and the white shirt are just great

thnaks Carsten, color was actually the thin I worked on the mest on this photo and I'm still undecided wheather I like it or not.
Out of the camera the color was ok, but not really what I wanted. I tried to adjust the color but it didn't work at all. So I started to make a B&W sepia version. But I really wanted to keep it in color. In the end I blened the original and the spepia versions together. I wish I had a little more color variation in the skin tones. Maybe I get too picky with my photos. It is also difficult to stay objective when taking photos of your own kids. So thanks for the honest feedback! I really need it sometimes.

Hi Jan, you are right, the colors is a little orange. See my reply to Carsten, I worked on the color for some time. I will need more experimenting with colors to get what I want. Especially skin tones are very fragile to adjust.

thanks Klifton! I did use the lens wide open, but I actually blured everything around the face quite a bit in PS. I always use lens blur as gaussan blur looks artificial.
