Ava Christening


I just wanted to write and tell you all about a special little girl that I have had the priveledge of photographing. Amy signed Ava up for my tots program and I have been enjoying watching her grow.
I have to mention how special this photograph is. The dress that Ava is wearing Ava's Grandmother had made for her. It was her wedding dress and she had it made into a christening gown. Every piece was sewn out of her wedding gown! I had never seen this before.  The under garment is sewn with Ava's name and birthdate. What I thought was so awesome is that this gown will be worn by all the grandchildren, and will eventually hold all of their names. How special this is!
If any one is interested in this please let me know and I would love to get the info for you.

Alissa,
You truly have a gift!!! The pictures are so beautiful that even though I have chosen mine, I still want more of them..... The lady that made Ava's gown is Joan Reiter, here is her web site: www.cabjoane.com and her phone # : 561-504-3143. You expressed an interest in talking with her about using her name on your web site. Thank you for sharing your gift with all of us,
