Two .98 cent stamps are what you'll need. The price goes up on January 22nd, so the second stamp will help cover the extra cost.
Make sure and NOT send him any Harry Potter photos, he won't sign those.

The A4 will cost you $3.04. You can use any combination of stamps that equals or surpasses that amount.
As to the 4x6, assuming it's under 1oz (28g), it will cost $1.05 after the price increase Ryan mentioned.

Thanks. Do I need to mark the envelopes as AIRMAiL or anything? I only have $1.05 so I'll just put 3 on.

I don't think you do, since the US doesn't do surface mail anymore anyways, but it doesn't hurt to do so anyways. I still write Airmail on mine out of habit.
