She does not really look happy with you taking her picture. I like the light and tone. She just looks a bit severe. I don't think I would complain about the coffee.
 
I don't find her sever or unhappy, I find her introverted, thinking of deeply personal things while the shutter was clicking. Lovely portrait in all and the staining goes well
 
I see curiosity. I love the tone, by the way. In the upper right hand part of her forehead it appears the stain is uneven. But I love looking at this.

I agree with Thomas - it seems to me that she is wondering whether that guy with the big wooden camera is completely crazy.

On a more serious note - while I do like the image, I think it would have been more pleasing if the model had turned her body away from the camera, and then compensated by turning her head back toward it. As it is, her shoulders seem disproportionately broad - like maybe she's plays fullback when she's not working at the coffee shop.
 
Thanks APUG'rs.
MONO-Of course I'm frickin' crazy...and proud of it! And, she is long and lean with great shoulders. The shot was more upper body but I cropped in when printing..

Thomas, the scan is crapola, so i fixed that area (ahem..)

Again, thanks.
I just shot another girl who works there, and plan on a few more. I hang there a lot so I feel better about doing something since I spend so much time there NOT working..
