This weekend across many Catholic Parishes, the Sacrament of  First Holy Communion was celebrated. We are parishioners at The Cathedral Basilica of St Augustine, I happened to bring my camera (as usual haha) even though I did not have a child receiving a Sacrament this year. I did have a several friends whose sweet children did. 

I served as a Extra Ordinary Eucharistic Minister so I did not take photos of them Receiving their First Holy Communion. But I captured a few precious moments before and after . I was also approached by a beautiful family that asked me to take their family photos after Mass. Apparently they had hired another professional photographer that did not show up! I was so sad for them and agreed to capture precious family moments.  

I did not use a flash during the Mass to keep the Reverence and respect due . I did use a flash for  the group shots after the Holy Mass. 

I am so happy I grabbed my camera bag today! 

Enjoy!  Have a Blessed Week!
