St Augustine Photographer | First Holy Communion Cathedral Basilica of St Augustine 2015
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!

St Augustine Birth Photographer | Jacksonville Birth Photographer: Homebirth of Cassandra
In the wee hours of the morning of March 16 I got the call from Leah that she thought she was in early labor. Being a birth doula also, I got up and prepared to head to her home. Because she was a fast laboring momma with her previous babies.
This was the first birth I was just the birth photographer and not doula . However I have been to many births as a doula/photographer.
I arrived close to 3 am. And Leah did not appear to be in active labor . Even when she was silently pushing we could not tell! She was beautiful and amazing! Here baby was born around 5:30 am.
The gender of their baby was a surprise also. You can see in the photos the look of surprise.
