I love photographing baptisms. Especially this one at St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church. It’s right in the heart of where I grew up and it’s where I photographed my first Greek wedding sixteen years ago. I always find myself photographing a slightly different angle every time. It is considered one of the darkest churches in the city, but as a photographer, I always welcome that challenge because I love geeking out on light. But one of my favourite things they have done over the years is add a spotlight above the alter which adds just the right amount of contrast and brightness which gives me some variety in creativity. Plus, the priests are always so lovely to work with and I always feel welcomed ♥️
