I think this is excellent!
If you think it should be brighter thats fine, but I really like it just the way it is.

Nice job above...good advice and good image.
Here is the Mark Wallace video; the whole thing is good but he talks about a bright background about the 1:40 spot.

If its not too cold where you are, in England it is 18.20 and really cold, nice to see an example.
I long for British winter weather again... It was 12 degrees here this morning, and that's fahrenheit! This is not a part of the US where we expect extremes of temperature, like the masochists who live in places like Minnesota, but we do get much greater extremes than the UK. We are not expected to climb above freezing for the rest of this week - and this is just November!
Oh, did I mention - I hate winter!

Mmart0418,
I like what morn did to that image. Before, the left cheek was blown out a bit and too bright. I am including a High Key image I shot of a model inside with a pretty simple lighting set-up only using 3 speedlights and Rogue Flashbenders. The main key light is centered in front of the model about 6 - 8 feet and about 2 feet higher than the model pointing down a bit. It was set at 1/2 power in manual mode. There are two speedlights set at 1/4 power with flashbenders about 2 feet or so from the off white paper backdrop pointing at the backdrop and about level with the model's chest.
The image was shot full manual, RAW format, with a Nikon D800, 24-70mm f/2.8 lens, ISO 200, f 5.6, 1/125 sec, 60 mm, spot focusing. This may or may not help you with the exterior shot, but I believe spot focus on the subject is important and have a much brighter background wherever you take the shot outside and whatever your background may be (hopefully not very busy and plain). Also, DOF should be appropriate so you are basically losing the background and it is very much out of focus while the subject (and one of her eye's) is very much in focus! Perhaps this may help when shooting High Key. :)
