I didn't mention that I was short one reflector so some fill lighting

So that was one reason for the tight framing: had to keep Megan out of
the shot. And then there was the way-too-close and improperly wrinkled
backdrop. Sigh. :-/
Thanks!

Especially nice lighting, Bruce. She fills the frame nicely if somewhat tightly.

Thanks, Larry.
On the skin: I'm a sucker for using the red filter in b&w conversions
of portraits, like film shooters did back in the day. Smooths out skin
tones and gives a luminous quality, not unlike IR.

her skin is so clear and white, it almost looks like she was
photographed in infrared.
