Maybe it's his glasses... but it seems as if his nose and his left eye (right side of image) are both in focus, but his right eye (left side of image) is not ... as if the DOF was so shallow that you couldn't get both eyes in focus. But again, maybe it's just the prescription in his glasses that is throwing the focusing off???

Edit to add:
But I absolutely LOVE the lighting. And the warmth in his expression is priceless!

Very nice job! Great color, and the photo just 'looks good', you know. Great control of the natural lighting, you did well. He seems to have a nice, warm personality, and you captured it, it comes out in the image nicely. One minor thing, if you wanted a suggestion to try for slight improvement, there are catchlights there in his eyes, but they seem 'small', maybe trying for a reflector to catch a little more, or even a strategically placed light, or diffused flash or something, just to get a little more catch light. Oh, and working with glasses, can be easy to catch glare and unwanted reflective spots, you've avoided well. I think, for headshots, framing like this (cutoff) work fine, this is a very nice shot, great job :-)

Nice choice with the blue shirt, works great with his eyes. I like crops like this too. Well done!
