Really very nice. Great colors, the poses feel comfortable and not static. Just a very pleasant family portrait overall. Not much to suggest to make it better.

You are so right about everything - yes, he was more "grabbing" her, she wasn't willing and was angry with him, so she turned away ready to go - he had to hold onto her :). And it was the first time in a long time he was willing to look into the camera so I just wanted to catch that.

Nice shot with lovely lighting and wonderful background colours.

There are a few simple things here which (for me at least) could help the picture. One of these is the tree trunk that is behind your son - being light coloured it tends to catch the eye a little and lead it away from the main picture, and the other point is that the position of the children is a little unbalanced.

He has his arm around her - but she doesn't have her's around him. If she did, it would have brought her left shoulder around to face the camera a bit more. Also he has one thumb appearing on it's own, on her front, and the other hand (on her arm) looks more like he's grabbing her, which by this point of the photo shoot he may have been :- )

But an attractive shot, with attractive children, and a lovely setting.

I gave this a 7 mostly because you captured some emotional substance coming out here, actually i think the technicals aren't that special, a little soft.
