1， dont use max aperture when shooting this type of portrait, stop down 2 stops. you'd get better sharpness.
2, dont use on camera flash when model is against the wall, at the least not directly, it casts a shadow on the wall, which is ugly.
3, thee is a lot of post processing required to make these shots look good.

Do you have a clown that follows you wherever you go? mine is called Fred.

I don't do this type of photography, but if I did:
- Model would stand further away from the wall to reduce that ugly shadow
- Another light/flash to give her eyes more sparkle

Actually this is my first attempt for photography . Next time i will take care that distance between model and wall .. these were the photos which were directly from the cameras

Welcome!
You might want to look at getting a better flash that what comes on the camera. Also a grag fong puffer flash is cheap on ebay and would also help.
Keep shooting.

I took a course in art last winter. I learnt the difference between a fine oil painting, and a mechanical thing, like a photograph. The photograph shows only the reality. The painting shows not only the reality, but the dream behind it.

To the OP:
In case of confusion, Granamere mistyped Gary Fong Diffuser.
If you want to get good at this kind of photography, joining a camera club may give you access to the extra flashes/lights needed, professional models and plenty of help and advice.

Take into a account what has been said but also try the following:
Set white balance to "Flash"
Use a lower flash compensation level and a slightly slower shutter speed, this allows the flash to be used as a fill rather than the primary light source.
But still the best solution is to get a flash with a bounce/swivel head.
Enjou your cam!
