I thought it was way too busy as well, maybe something fun over your boys head whilst he was sleeping would of done better, or stick to less is more I reckon.

Looks very busy and I didn't even notice the kid! The angle is overdone, overall it lacks Christmas magic. The studio shots are too much like product photos so I don't think they would do better.

LOL! I'm a sucker for detailed shots like this esp those shot wide-angle. Love the chaotic scene here, esp Buzz hanging almost upside-down. 7 for the creativity.
