Very good, if a bit dark. In photography there's more room for overexposing some things.

Hahaha sorry mate. Photography is a perceptual subject, it depends a lot on who's looking at it and when, and even what mood you're in when you're looking at it. There's plenty of room to go either way, I was just being nitpicky because I can't not be an arse.
It's a good photo, personally I'd just stop it down a tiny bit if only to match the lighting of the others, with slightly darker shadows. Maybe I'd have overexposed
more whilst keeping (or trying to keep) the rest of the frame even. But I don't NEED to explain this to you, you know all this already and probably better than me. I shame myself.
About the last one, my first complaint is that a too bright light is only in a small part of the frame, pushing the rest of the picture down. Not that you can't use multiple sources of light, in this case I assume sunlight and skylight, just at least not like that. BUT if it suits your needs, definitely go for it. If a picture is good for what you will be using it for, then it is good. Only me, in a context like wedding and sweet sixteen shoots very unlike The Core, would have considered that a throwaway shot in most photobook cases.
While I'm posting here, some old photos I just found:
