Set Feature Three…
Posted on December 29, 2011
Today’s feature set is the “white wood” set. I LOVE this set and was thrilled to pieces when my hubby told me he stopped and picked up the wood when he saw some people taking an old barn down! It’s very versatile and works great for boys or girls!
Set feature number two….

I thought maybe I’d do some posts on the different sets I have available which will help when planning out your session with me! The is our blue/brown wood set that was new this fall. As you can see it worked great with pumpkins but I found a few to add in that didn’t have pumpkins too! This set works great for girls or boys and I’ve even done a few maternity sessions with it too!
New set :)
Posted on December 27, 2011
Here is the new set I was working hard on late into the night last night! This will be available just in time for the vintage angel mini sessions coming up. I’ll have a couple of backdrops set up that day for you to choose from and this one is just perfect with the gold angel wings. I have new pink angel wings available this year too of course but I wanted something new for the gold ones as well
By the way I still have three spots available for the Vintage Angel mini sessions: a 9:15, a 9:45 and a 10:15! You can see the details HERE!
Hey there…

From my cuties to yours!
‘Twas the night before Christmas…
Posted on December 24, 2011
….and all through the house are 25+ family members eating lots of soup, cookies (and these amazing brownies with marshmallow and peanut butter topping (hello!), with grandma playing the piano and everyone singing Christmas Carols. Kids jingling bells wearing an assortment of reindeer antlers and dancing of course. I’m notorious for leaving my camera in the car…in another room….at home etc. when it comes to family functions so in true Jennifer fashion here are a few quick cell phone snaps of some of our singing “chaos”….and two cuties who had this year’s honor of missing their two front teeth
Giving Back
Posted on December 23, 2011
Christmas is just around the corner and it’s a time where we think beyond ourselves to serve others.
Chic Critique Forum would like to donate $5000 to help this little girl with Down Syndrome get out of a neglected orphanage and adopted into a loving home but they can’t do it without you.
Meet Charity. Read her story.

If you would like to give back this holiday season, HERE’S HOW YOU CAN HELP:
It will only take 5 minutes of your time but could change her life.
- Join Chic Critique Forum with an annual membership and they’ll donate $19 towards her adoption grant
- Share on Facebook and Twitter by saying: “Help this little girl with Down Syndrome get adopted and out of an orphanage: http://tinyurl.com/cz85bwz”
- Pin her picture on Pinterest with the text: “Help this little girl with Down Syndrome get adopted and out of an orphanage: http://tinyurl.com/cz85bwz”
- Copy and paste this blog post onto your own blog
- Share her story with your friends & family via email
- Donate directly to her grant
$39 for an annual forum membership is really not that much when you consider how much you will be helping sweet, little Charity. It’s the same price of an action set, card templates, a dinner for 2, a set of Legos, a belt at Anthropologie…but this $39 will make ALL the difference for her. Please help them to help her!
