Ok, I hear crickets chirping, let me ask this a different way.

I am doing a portrait of a 5yo. Originally, the mother wanted to have him sitting in the house. I shot a couple of pictures of him outside as we were leaving and when she saw these she changed her mind. So, I am going back to take more pictures of him outside, in this spot.

When the original idea was to have him seated, we were going with a 24x36. She likes his bare feet, so she wants this in there. If she ends up still going with a standing pose such as this one, is a 24x36 too small? Would a 30x40 be big enough? Any suggestions before I go reshoot this and try to talk her into something bigger and ultimately more expensive?
