Towards the Light

During a baby shoot last weekend I was using my lite sphere on my speedlite flash off the camera, here I tried placing it on the floor for dramatic lighting , which was cool for one shot, but the it frightened the baby so shot the rest above her.
I then edited in PS usinf spatter brushes all around the image and airbrush on her skin.
Appreciate any and all comments, thanks for looking even if ya don’t comment :)
