The Trouble with Taking your Own Photos

As a new parent, there is no doubt that you will take hundreds of photos of your baby. However, if you are always snapping, you may have very few images of you and your baby. At important events, such as Christenings and Baptisms, it is important to have great group shots of parents and children together. At this special parent and child moment, you want to be part of those photos! 


The other issue with taking your own Christening or Baptism photos is that churches are notoriously dark. The lighting through stained glass windows can also be unusual. As a professional photographer, I have the kit and knowledge to harness the light and use it to great effect. This results in clear and beautiful images that everyone can enjoy.


Is Photography Permitted at Christenings?

If you are planning to hire a professional photographer for a christening or baptism, it is important to check with the priest to see if photography is allowed. In most cases, photography is permitted, but there may be certain restrictions on which parts of the ceremony can be photographed and where the photographer can stand. Having a conversation between the priest and photographer beforehand can help ensure that everything goes smoothly on the day of the event. Additionally, it may be helpful to check if there are any other celebrations scheduled at the same time to avoid any potential conflicts or overlaps.


Enjoy the Occasion

Hiring a professional photographer for a Christening or Baptism allows the parents, godparents and guests to focus on the meaning and celebration of the event. It takes away the responsibility for recording the key moments and means everyone is in the photo looks great! It offers you quality images that spark memories and can be shared with your children as they grow up.

How to photograph a christening - Pro Tips!

When it comes to capturing a christening, I always rely on my trusty Nikon 85mm 1.4 lens. It's the perfect choice for shooting in dimly lit churches. It lets in plenty of light, creating a beautiful creamy bokeh effect in the background. Babies are naturally drawn to light and so I always make sure to include pictures with their christening candle in the collection. Lastly, since many vicars prefer re-enacting baptisms after church services, this gives me a great opportunity to set up the perfect flash lighting for the font.
