I agree with Mike. The lighting is so frontal as to eliminate all form. The boy on the right has a kind of squashed expression, etc.
I know you could do much better than grandma's snapshot. Great reference is THE KEY to a great portrait.
Besides who wants to be just a very expensive photocopy enlarging machine? The most creative part of this career is using your own concept, posing, lighting, composition and selecting of the reference to use. Then the piece is all yours instead of only half your work and half grandma's.
