Critique

First, let me say that this is a nice entry and it looks good.
The hard cuts look good, if it was hard cut.
Be careful with covering model's faces unintentionally, as the leaf covers the larger model's face.
Also another thing to be conscious about is vertical spacing and creating a balanced composition.
For example the focal point of the larger emma is high up and the smaller emma is near the center.
The text is a pretty large focal point it hovers near the top half as well. So its quite a top heavy signature.
Also don't feel the need to cover the canvas 100% with stocks.
It's not necessary to place things just for the sake of covering space.
Lastly, I must say that I've seen so many variations of this that I can't consider this original.
I'm not saying that this is a copy or plagiarizing or anything like that.
It's just well, if you've seen similar things a million times before it gets old.

Example:
My friend Teal wrote a tutorial for this banner:

and since then here are some of the many many variations based on it:

Chapter 50: Sorry for the late comment bb! Thank you for the review! I wasn't too sure on this one, and I started doubting myself after I sent it in, but I guess I should be more confident because you thought it was interesting ^^
I do admit I oversharpenined this a bit more than I should XD The pictures used were fuzzy after I resized and I overcompensated by sharpening too much OTL
