Here are some shots from one of Three Sparrows' first sessions! :-) The Pikaleks are friends from my old church, and the photos from this session helped me when I launched the Facebook page. /*! elementor - v3.7.4 - 31-08-2022 */ .elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=".svg"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}[...]
