Lovely lovely shots.
The baby seems to be under stress in one or two shots. I am not a christian nor do I know the ceremony and am wondering why the baby seems stressed.
I am sure all is in good faith.

Thank you for your comments re the shots. Re the distress. Most babies cry when they are held by a stranger and dunked into water. In her case, it was a show of temper.....she is quite a wilful little madam. She was all smiles later and has likely forgotten it all.
