Very nice work. While agreeing totally wih what Linda and Michelle have said, I'm also an advocate of the "Photoshop save." One of the things to keep in mind with photos is that there's more information in the darks than we realize. In this case the whites of the eyes can be brightened enough and cooled in tone to work for you as reference. And a touch of white reflection in the pupils will give the needed sparkle. For me the slight squint in the bright sun is very much a part of the boy's humorously mischevious look and can make for a compelling and non-traditional portrait.
