Hello, the link to the reference image appears to be broken. Anyway, your work is very good, especially the render with vfx. Enjoyed the DOF.
You cogitate use some image as background (skydome, or environment image)? Maybe you have a gain in realism. This is the only note that I do now. Congratulations.
small changes to justify the point of view so low (toys = there was a child who was playing as a parent sitting reading and drinking)
I reduced the blur and underexposure of the foreground element.

strange! I tried to connect with two different machines (win and mac) and with different browsers (opera, chrome, firefox). Mysteries of the web. Try this:
Hey… maybe you made a mistake or you really did an excellent job. This scenes are identical. The image you posted is a render, for sure. I don’t know which is your reference…
yeah. Your reference image is a rendering. I have no doubt about this. The carpet condemns the scene.
But, as I said before, there is a background image appearing on window, in your reference image, something that will enhance your scene.
Anyway you did a good job here.
And more, I believe your scene will look better than your reference.
Another note
Once you set your background image, I think you will have a gain to decrease the intensity of your outside lighting. You already have a lampshade on. Try this.
