First portraits of grandson taken by me
A very handsome young man to be sure. I like them all but to me the last one really rings my bell. Very nice.

Very nice set, but I would also prefer the tighter crops like the last one. The first two could be cropped to take them from being 'good' portraits to 'great'

I concur that a Portrait crop on 1 and 2 would help.
#3 on the other hand, has that line between the fence pickets 'growing' out of the top of his head.
The exposures look OK.
But there's too much 'depth of field'.
Need to shoot with a wider aperture to blur the background more.
And a little fill flash or a reflector on #1 would get rid of the 'racoon eyes'.

I like his toothless smile in the first one but cropped tighter. I don't like the fence in the second one, third is a nice crop, maybe blurr out the fence in Photoshop if you have it. He is a cute little guy

Very nice, I like the middle one the best but with a tighter crop it would look a lot better I think as the pose is very good.
