I did some shots for a family member. These are a few of my favorites. What do you think?

1. I dunno, I think there is something wrong with them being dead in the center... I don't like that part of it, otherwise good shot. Nice colors and emotion.

2. The white balance looks a little too cool....

3. Nice shot, but again with the WB. Maybe put the camera in a portrait position as well?

Great pictures they just need a little PP work. I hope you don't mind but I did a quick edit, if you do just tell me and I'll take it down. Like Duco said the white balance is a little off so I used the white eye dropper in levels on the girls shirt to get the colour balance right. Then I used curves to add some contrast. The only problem now is he top right corner is a little blown. I brought it back a bit the the burn tool but its not perfect. Hope you like it.

Incognetoo, don't mind at all. The WB is definitely off. These are straight out of the camera, I still need to work on them in PP. Both, thanks for the comments!

For me, I think the first shot would look very good centered. As it is right now, it is slighly off center. I think it should either be centered on the couple with the tree branches bringing the viewers eyes to them. You could also try cropping a bit on the right, but then you have some blown out sky at the left of the frame.

Regardless, they look good and are workable!
