When you use a wide angle lens you get perspective distortion, note how small her feet look compared to models hands
Pose, models arms are just limp at her sides, placing hips on angle to camera has a slimming effect
Because of your high camera angle you have lost appearance of models neck

Perspective distortion in this image again, note how large his foot looks
[Notice how much longer her neck looks in this image, because the camera is not shooting down on her]
[When using a wide angle lens, objects closer to lens will look much larger then those farther away.]

I would suggest cropping image above your logo, this will remove males partial hand, also burn in her hand to darken it, and lighten his teeth a tiny bit
Could use a bit of contrast to add some punch
From a capture the moment this is your best image
[Solid colors work better than busy tops, note the difference as seen in this photo, our eyes are not distracted by his shirt, but are drawn to her top]
