Nice, fits the challenge well.
Looks as though you had to twist his arm to sit for you ;-)

I miss a bit of a feeling in here. It looks like a picture of mother and son. As such it's very nice.

This strikes me as touching, with decent lighting. However, I hate abercrombie! I applied for a job there, and the manager tried to convince me that the people working there were doing it for the social life. He also tried to convince me that they enjoyed having to work six days a week, regardless of full or part time. He then tried to tell me that my current pay of 11.62 an hour was probably not what I would make there, (despite my 2 BAs and an acceptance into a master's program!) Did I mention, I hate abercrombie?
Also, the woman in the shot is mid scentence, and the child needs a better angel to be photographed.
I hope I didn't offend anyone.

Nice portraiture. The mother seems .. more sad than hopeful of her son's future. Not sure if this was purposeful. Image could benefit from better centering.
