Hi Peter,
I love the color scheme in this photo but I have to say that getting the color changes to look believeable in her face will be very difficult to do, unless you are a fairly loose painter and aren't going for a tight likeness. If you look around at what other professional painters do with outdoor portraits, you'll see what I mean.
Also, I would not shoot a woman outside who is over the age of 25 or 30 because I could get her to look so much better with carefully planned indoor lighting. Women as a rule want to look good, or interesting, and preferably both. Your wife is attractive and you can shoot her so that she is a knockout - not necessairly in a vampy sultry sense (depending on her personality) - but in a way that maximizes her winsome charm.
