Welcome to DPS.
You will probably have better response if you embet the pic (s) rather than link....
But I did click on the link and must say you have some cute kids. The lil one is supercute.
All of them images are very dark. The black and white conversion is very contrasty. You might want to rework the conversion and see if you can't get a little more lattitude in the image...where you have almost pure white buty still have nice deep dark shadows. Spreading that range should lengthen out the shades of gray too. What you'll want is a nice smooth transition from the shadows to the highlights that maintains the detail. So you've got three great models, now just shoot more!

You need to pick ONE picture for critique. You can come back each day and add another if you have a series you want to work through.

Have a read of our FAQ which not only explains the site rules but also gives an illustrated guide to how best to include an image from your Flickr account in a post.
