D Correct answer
Explanation

When describing someone's position relative to you, 'standing in front of me' is the correct prepositional phrase indicating location. Option D is correct. 'Standing to me' and 'standing from me' are not standard English expressions. 'Standing about me' suggests standing around/near, not a specific position.
