Washington DC Christening, St. Patrick’s Catholic Church

A few weeks back my friend and amazing event planner Aimee Dominick surprised me and asked if I would photograph her daughter Evvie’s christening.  Following Sunday Mass at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church, Aimee, her husband Al, family members and close friends gathered together for a most intimate event.  I was moved as I witnessed Aimee and Al take turns holding Evvie as a prayer was offered to each of them.  They both closed their eyes and there was this overwhelming feeling of love that permeated.  It is beautiful to see the amount of love that parents shower their children with.  It’s the real deal and to have been invited to document something so intimate was an honor.  Following the christening, they walked over to Brasserie Beck for a luncheon and had a beautiful cake by Kristine Bender of K.
