the baxl communion

I was so happy when my friend asked me to photograph her son’s communion. As it turns out, her son was my Jack’s “buddy” when they were in 1st grade and 4th grade and really hit it off. And when they were having construction done on their home, the rented a house across the street from us. So even though this poor kid had had it with me by the end of our time together, at least I was someone familiar to him in the beginning.

Mom and I have bonded a bit over Kindles and suggesting books to eachother. She’s one of the nicest people I’ve met. And again, as it turns out I know her sister from well, forever. We graduated together from HS, but me living in my little bubble I didn’t even realize that they were sisters until like a week before our shoot! Duh.

I swear the kid looks like a Kennedy in this picture. 
Thanks for letting me capture your special day!
