Vacation {Outer Banks. North Carolina Beach Photographer}

Even on vacation, when I see a cool chair I've just gotta put a baby on it. My husband didn't even blink an eye when I said "You know, I would really love to bring this chair out on the beach one day this week."

Unfortunately the weather would not cooperate, and an actual beach shoot was not possible due to crazy crazy wind and rain. But still we brought the chair up (from the basement) to the third floor deck and did a quick couple of shots.

And so, a few of the cutiest girlies around. But of course, I may be biased...

A Baptism and a Lesson. {Fairfax Virginia Baptism Photographer}

This morning I had a baptism shoot to go to. I got to the church early, took several shots of the interior and exterior of the building, of the stained glass windows and the statues... then I realized that it was about 5 minutes before the baptism was scheduled to start and there was nobody there but me. Hmm...yep. Definitely went to the wrong St. Mary's.

Luckily the correct church was only a 5 minute drive away, and I somehow managed to hit green lights the whole way, so I got there in time.

Baby O was so well behaved during the entire baptism service, I never heard her make a peep, even when they poured the holy water on her head. She looked gorgeous in her baptismal gown, and big sister I was also extremely adorable- and very interested in my camera.

The photos will be up in a few days, but I just had to post a few of my favorites now.

And what did we learn today, class? ALWAYS CONFIRM THE ADDRESS!!!
