Handsome Michael made his first communion about 2 weeks ago and I was so happy to be asked to take some photos for him and his family. Their shoot was originally scheduled as a holiday session back in November but Sandy ruined that (and the fact that most of mom’s family lives in Breezy) so we did a communion session instead. It all works out in the end somehow.

Another pretty communicant photographed at the Links. And although the earlier part of the day was gorgeous, about an hour before our session the clouds and fog rolled in and it dropped like 20 degrees. This is not been the year for good weather. But even a freezing little girl can put on a smile and brave the yuck weather for some pretty photos! At least the flowers were blooming.

The one on the left is very “mad men”, don’t you think? I don’t know if its the shape of the dress or the style of the couch but I totally get that vibe. Its always my favorite to see a little (or a lot) of personality shine through. 

Right after photographing Sam’s communion I walked over to the other side of the Links and met up with sweet Katie and her family for some portraits of her special day. The sky started to clear a little bit and at least there were a few blue skies and drops of sun. But it was still windy and chilly so we worked super fast to keep smiles on everyone’s faces.

Love this one- reminds me of the snow queen.
Before you freak out, Dad was right there and had his hand about an inch from Katie’s. I just photoshopped it out. Beautiful mommy & daughter. Yay for communions!
