Usually, yes, but every church sets its own rules. Some ask the photographer to stay in one spot, some ask for no photos during certain prayers, and most ask for no flash. Angie checks with your priest, pastor or parish office before the date and follows their guidance on the day.

No. Angie photographs baptisms with natural light only, so nothing distracts from the ceremony. Inside a church she uses the window light and a fast lens. Darker churches give the images a warmer, softer look with a little grain. If the sanctuary is very dark, she tells you before you book.

Yes. An Orthodox baptism includes the blessing of the water, triple immersion, chrismation and the procession around the font, so coverage is planned around the whole service rather than a single moment. Angie stays where the priest asks and works without flash. Ask your parish about photography before you book and pass along anything they tell you.

Yes. Adult baptisms in a baptismal pool, at a river or at a lake are covered the same way: Angie plans where to stand for the moment you go under and come up, checks the light at that time of day, and takes portraits with your family and church community afterward. Tell her if several people are being baptized that day so she knows who to follow.

Three to four weeks ahead is ideal, and as soon as the church confirms your date. Parishes often hold baptisms on set days, so book once your date is set. Send the church name and ceremony time with your inquiry, and Angie confirms whether she is available.
