 Client session - single mother and her 4 year old son. One of the most challenging kids I've ever worked with, but when I caught this one I knew it was what mom wanted. She loves it soooooooooo much.

Beautiful portrait of mom and son. A square crop might work better to focus on their faces. Love it

a bit of a stretch, but it's ok.
technicals are not at the level of the subjects....shirt is over exposed, and it could (it should) have been corrected under advanced editing rules.

A great portrait pair, only -ve point is the choice of location and/or background. Otherwise a great shot with good fill-in flash

Would be better if he was looking at the same spot as her, and if his shirt wasn't showing his belly.

I think if you could have got more of the mom in the shot (just the her back) it would have made the shot that much better.
