Jacob's Christening | Peabody event photographer

It was a beautiful Sunday a few weeks ago for Jacob's Christening. St. John's Church in Peabody is one of the most beautiful churches around. I was the band director at the school there for 5 years so I'm very familiar with the church.

I love this shot!

Mom Chrissy, Jacob, Dad and firefighter Paul

The christening was followed by a gathering at Petrillo's for the best Italian food around. I felt like a part of the family and will be seeing more of them next year when I photograph Paul's cousin's wedding (although I hope to see them before then!)

Here's a slideshow of the rest of the photos from the day.

Jacob | Peabody Family Photography

Last week I met Jacob and his family at their house. He's a serious little guy so getting smiles took a lot of work. We even had to bring in Grandma to help out. Smiling or not he's just adorable.

This white outfit is a family heirloom that was worn by his Father when he was a baby.

This is my new friend Riley. He was the best! I would have taken him home in a heartbeat!

The session was in the evening and Jacob was fast asleep in his crib by the time we walked down to the kitchen to say goodbye. I had to go back up and get some pictures of him sleeping.

Here is a slideshow of the rest of the images. You'll be seeing more of this family in a couple of weeks when I photograph Jacob's christening.
