HI,
Personally, I'd get down to his level, and above all, get his eyes pin sharp. I like the rough wall and its color, your boy is a little out of focus, and if you remedy this you'll instantly see a vast improvement.

Yep, the key with kids is to get either as low or lower than them, otherwise it always has that "snapshotty" feel. This is a good shot exposure, color, and sharpness wise though.
