Baby Jasmine's Baptism- Annapolis, MD

Yesterday was my cousin's baby's baptism!  It's been such a surreal experience seeing this kid that I grew up with now a father!  It was such a beautiful occasion and the priest let all of the family and friends up on the altar so we could all take a part in the ceremony.  It was also amazing to have all of our family together for a good occasion for once, this past year has been tough for us with a lot of illnesses and losses.  Although, we have grieved the loss of some, yesterday we were able to celebrate the young life of the next generation of our family.  Thank you Artiss and Ann for allowing us all to be a part of this special occasion.

This was a beautiful church, and I loved this crucifix.

Love this photo... I'm a big fan of one subject in focus and others out of focus.

Hi everyone and Happy 2012! 
This is my first blog post for 2012 and its a great one.  I had the opportunity to photograph my friend Holly and her family.  Their mothers 60th birthday is coming up and they wanted to give her something special.  We had such a great time and laughed a lot.  And thanks to this mild winter so far, we were able to take some shots outside.  Enjoy these photos and again... Happy New Year!

 *So beautiful Holly!

 *So he totally might kill me for posting this one, but I got this shot when he didnt think I was shooting.  This is actually one of my favorite shots of the day!

 * Sisters!

 *So cute!

This week over at I heart faces, to celebrate their 3rd anniversary, they are asking for your best face photo of 2011.  I'm picking a photo from Stephen and Krystina's session a couple months ago.  Its one of my favorite shoots of all time and have been waiting to enter it into a contest.  I love this shot, Krystina looks flawless and so natural and I love the way the golden light of the sunset is hitting her so perfectly.
