1) The colours. I got hooked on Fuji film this summer after having some bad experiences with Kodak. I was immediately impressed by the range of colours, the saturation of those colours and the crispness of the film. All of those trademarks show up here. You are quite right about the lighting - it's perfect, it's warm, and it's damn inviting. It's brought an amber glow to her skin in key areas around her face - towards the edges of her body there is a nice 'cool' blue glow - it's a great contrast, and it's turned out well.
2) The lens that you've used. Is it a prime? Or something close to a 50mm? I like the depth that you've captured here - how certain areas are soft, and how they lead up to the crisp areas that are in focus. It really draws our attention to what is important - her face. Everything there that is important is perfectly focused, we can definately enjoy all of those nice little details. It has also created a nice background - enough to be eye pleasing, but not enough to be distracting (to the point where it robs from the facial area).
3) The look. It's a combination of those bangs, the youthful freckles and the hand carefully holding her face. There is a very calm feeling to the photograph - it's a combination of all of the above. You've caught a very special moment - and I'm glad that you've shared it with us. This image definately caught my attention and I had to stop by to check it out in full view - I'm glad that I did.
