Jen, first, its a nice shot both in BW/Color, I seem to favor color, my preference only, the only thing I think that might have helped is to take a half step/step back re compose & see if the shadow(s) is better or not. Joe's idea of shooting at eye level works for me. And try with/without glasses on before you shoot. It might just eliminate a lot of photoshopping as Helene stated. Just my 2 cents.
