Congrats Jackie Jean! Your image is so cute that we had to feature you as the Chic of the Week.

The lighting in this image is gorgeous! Plus, this photo of this little boy is so adorable that there was no way I could let it slip by without sharing it in a CHIC of the Week post.

Congrats again to Jakie Jean!  You’ve been awarded a gift certificate from one of our vendors for being selected as Chic of the Week!

Which photo of your own would you like to see featured on the site?

If you upload your favorite photos to the forum, we just might feature yours next.

bio

Jackie Jean is a proud mama of four incredible boys, married to a rockstar, a self taught 100% Natural Light Portrait Photographer, and a lover of old school coffee houses.
She specializes in children & family portrait work and is in her ninth year of business. She is known for her emotional connections, creative flare, and post processing.

Image Stats:

I was on my way to a location I had passed earlier in the day but then when I went back, I discovered there was no parking anywhere! The sun began to set behind the clouds and it was gorgeous so I hurried to another spot I knew of that was close by. My boys and I all jumped out of the car to make sure to capture the golden rays of light streaming down, it was such a magnificent sight!
I shot this with my D800 and 85mm 1.8 lens.
Settings: 400iso / f/3.2 / ss 2000 / jpeg
I processed this image in CS6.

What critique from Chic Critique Forum did you find helpful after sharing this image?

Just seeing the talent and being apart of Chic Critique has been an awesome push to continue to strive for creativity in my photography.
