I took this with my Nikon D5000 F/3.5 Shutter 1/80 sec. ISO 200 with an 18mm lens. I Love the lighting. Critiques Welcome!

This site seems to be a set up to see who will respond, I may be out of line with this notion, but I will wait and see.

What leads me to this critical thinking is your lead in description, "I like the lighting".

I think that it is a good candid. However, there are a couple of things I would watch for the next time. First, the background is too busy, the window next to her face detracts from the overall effect (or is it affect). Anyway, I would also have had her face turned slightly towards the camera, allowing the light to wrap around and slowly disappear into the shadows. Working with children can be challenging to say the least. Sometimes you have to take what you get. Great start and keep shooting.

Agreeing with Mr Brown there about the background. Are you using the popup flash on the camera? There's an odd shadow across the bottom 1/4 of the photo.
I do however like the pose and expression of the subject. I have a 5 month old and it can be a challenge to get good pictures of children.
