The downside to the side lighting is that half his body is dark. Comes with the territory. If you can get him to cooperate, perhaps holding his left arm forward a bit to get it into the sun and out of his shadow would balance that out a bit. With his position, I can almost imagine a huge fish hanging next to him on the right of the photo...

Very nice. Good composition, lighting, contrast. Cindy's great expression and looking directly at the camera really draw you into the shot.

Watch the juxtaposition of the background skyline, jetty, and lifeguard seat. It looks very busy in the upper right corner. I think this might have been even better with a little sky showing beneath the seat - a lower perspective. I also agree about the strangeness in the sky.

This is a very nice, poignant shot (at least for those of us who like the beach).

Nice contrast & detail. I think the slightly offset framing adds to the shot.

Is this thing loaded?

Nice idea and fun shot. I find Isaac's face a little dark. This type of capture is a special memory - regardless of how "good" it is.

Not sure what you were going for here. Generally, I'm not all that fond of OOF shots, and this qualifies as OOF - with the exception of the near balcony railing and dormer window. If your target was Halloween or spooky, you got it. The jet trail is a detractor, but minor compared to the OOF effect.

What a cutie pie! You're working with a challenging shot here - the bright light from outside, and the comparative darkness of inside. I'd second the reflector idea. You can also paint the bottom of a pizza box chrome or silver and use that... Alayna's face is half in shadow, and she is the most interesting thing in your photo. The wooden spoon also gets lost - use your props creatively to get an even better shot.

I really like this shot. Nice subject, textures, and contrast. You might try a tighter crop on it(from about where the first row of concrete out from the step intersects the right side of the photo to just left of the main tree. For my taste, there is just a little too much of the concrete in the foreground (basically a pattern with very little interest). See below.
