First Communion is a right of passage for any catholic in the second grade. There is a lot of preparation that goes into this event, and you absolutely want to capture photos of this milestone.
This little boy was dressed in a white suit from Goodheart's in Reading and was so adorable and willing to take the time to capture this special moment in his life. First Communion Photos are a child's first real exposure to being part of the catholic faith. While they are all baptized by this point, they don't remember it and this is one of the first events in a child's life that they will remember.
For this photo, we went into the church, and I was on the ground of the center aisle. I wanted to be sure to get the stained glass window in the back with the crucifix in the background. I didn't want to make it the focal point so I made sure to shoot at a lower F stop and hit Ben with a little bit of flash.
Location: St Agnes, Woburn Street Reading MA.
