Baptising our babies

2/6/2014

We have been planning Little I's baptism this week so I thought I would share the photographs taken at Little E's baptism nearly 3yrs ago.

Little E being christened

Our Vicar was slightly militant about photography during the service and we were only allowed one photograph to be taken at the font. One photo! I delegated the task to my Uncle Stu who was more than a little nervous but captured this fab shot of Little E looking down into the font, with water just visible, glistening on her forehead.

Little I's baptism is booked for August at the same church. It is where Husband and I were married 6yrs ago so we feel a special connection when we are there. There is a new vicar so Uncle Stu may get to take a few more photos this time round.

Only one photo! Luckily it turned out very well. Hope the next christening goes well (and you're allowed more pics!).
Popping over from Magic Moments.

We were lucky that our priest is not camera shy so we were able to get as much as we want. YOu have one photo but you are right when you said its a right capture. She looks so into the water. #magicmoments

Lovely that you are having them both done at the same place. We aren't allowed any photos at our Abbey.

I haven't got any photos from the church for all of my three children. I don't think we were allowed to. Hope the next one goes well.

Thanks for the lovely comments everyone. It seems each church has different photography policies. It was the same at our wedding - luckily we were allowed to video it though so we have it captured to show our girls.

Oh how wonderful. What pressure with the one photo - it's a goodie though. Must be great looking back especially with Little I's baptism coming up. Lovely post, thank you for sharing with #whatsthestory
