Nicholas' Mum is a very old friend of mine, so I was honoured when she asked me to photograph his Christening & 1st Birthday Party!

The celebration was being held at the family home, so we arranged for me to arrive early to get a few family portraits before the guests started arriving, always a good idea. Nicholas is the smiliest 1 year old I know so he was easy, his big brother on the other hand was not so keen on the camera.... but very cheeky! And as you can see they are both besotted with their Grandma.

Then the party began with lots of family and friends around to help celebrate, and a lovely naming ceremony carried out by one of our favourite celebrants Elaine Searle, held on the deck with the lovely afternoon sun in the background.

A beautiful day, thanks for inviting me to "Capture Your Memories" guys x
