Today, our featured photographer on the DPNow Picture of the Day is Jennifer, from Missouri in the USA, and is registered on the DPNow forum and galleries as cowcrzy06.
Jennifer's previous POTD here on DPNow was also a dreamy portrait of a young girl. She certainly seems to have the talent for it!
Personally, I like the use of the sepia tone, the relaxed and mischievously happy look in the face of Chloe, the subject, and the overall composition. Am quite sure Chloe's Grandma was delighted when she was presented with the picture. Jennifer tells us how she did it:
"I took this photo for a good friend. She was wanting to give it as a gift to grandparents. She specifically requested the sepia tone. We sat Chloe on the porch rail on an old porch that had peeling paint to further give the photo an "old feel". In the first photo we took, the background of the porch was very distracting. We solved that problem by using a black background and that seemed to do the trick!
And what a nice result - well done, Jennifer!
