My Son

Used lightroom to add the "aged photo" effect and tweak it after. I don't remember my ISO, Shutter speed, Aperture.

I think the right photo is overexposed, as you have a large area of pure white where detail is lost.

In the first photo, I don't think the woman in the background adds to the photo. I would crop it and put the focus on your son. In order to do so, I had to do a bit of cloning of her left knee, but the grass and bushes made that a simple fix. I also thought your son was too hidden in shadows, so I did a shadows/highlights adjustment on the whole image and then duplicated that result and did an additional shadow adjustment on his left eye and his right collar (using a mask so that the effect was only applied to those areas). Then I added just a bit of contrast.
