I reposted the shot with the suggestions. The warming filter made a little difference. I had actually already applied it on the one from yesterday. I re-applied it again over the top, but it only made a little bit of difference. Here's the B&W also. I don't mind it, but it's just not what I was aiming to achiever with the shot.
I do think the blue cast was the main problem. I tried to get him to hold the umbrella back further but he wouldn't be in it.
My plan, is to try the shot all over again from scratch next time. Wish me luck.

I love the B&W such a fun shot
What a nice image!
I like the b&w. Isn't is frustrating when you have an idea in your head and you can't get the shot to look like it? The good thing is you now have an excuse to shoot shoot shoot! :)
Don't you just hate that when you get the photo set up the way you want but then can't get the effect? I like the b/w a lot, but I understand that you're dissatisfied because it doesn't match what was in your head. Interesting, I just read a quote from the photographer Diane Arbus: "I never have taken a picture I've intended. They're always better or worse."
i think that look really cute..i especially like the b&w.
What a darling photo!
I love the B&W for this shot.
I really like the B&W - but I know what you mean about having the idea in your head! Photography can be disappointing at times - keep on trying, though! I can't wait to actually feel like I know what I'm doing in photoshop!
Isn't it wonderful that a BnW conversion can "fix" even the worst color cast? Nice job.
Cute shot... really like it B/W :)
I really like the b&w!

I love the B/W conversion! So fun.
I like this shot a lot! I like the color best but it looks good both ways!
I prefer the b/w... love how converting to b/w makes color casts just go away! :)
I like the b&w also. I really like how you played around with the suggestions to see how it might turn out. Most of the photos I shoot, I don't like, but SOME I eventually like!
Cute shot of him.
Have you tried playing with Curves to increase the contrast? Then you could go to levels and play with the blue and red channels to make it a bit warmer.
