Hello Anthony,
I will offer my overall impressions. There is much more to like than dislike in this portrait. I love the background and the little girl seems well done.
Two things that you might consider: The bench seems a little too high toned (and monotoned). I think if you brought it down a couple of notches it would not compete with the subject quite so much. Especially the area just to our left of her head. The beads seem to have too much of a sameness to them. I would try and create some variation with shadow and light.
As I said, these are nits to a very nice work.
