I had met Sophia's mom at another birthday party I photographed for a mutual friend, and was happy to receive a last minute phone call on Saturday asking if I'd be able to take some photographs after her daughter's communion the following morning. As it turned out, I did have a time slot available, so off to St David's church in Davie, FL I went.

Sophia was absolutely stunning, and seemed genuinely proud to have reached this milestone. She looked like a mini-bride! Mom, please call me in 20 years when she's a real bride - I'd love to photograph that too (although I hope to get your beautiful family in front of my camera again before that)! Congratulations!
