Baptisms, christenings and First Communions are quiet, meaningful ceremonies, often with godparents and extended family gathered in church. MacroSnaps photographers and videographers cover the ceremony with care, along with family portraits and the gathering or brunch afterward, so you have a full record of a day that happens only once. We also photograph the small things families tend to keep, such as the gown, the candle and the certificate.
Choose your city below for local venues, typical coverage and answers to common questions, or book directly online. A typical baptism, christening or First Communion is about 2 hours of photography ($350) and 2 hours of videography ($500).

Planning tips
Planning your coverage in Kentucky
Confirm the church's photography rules
Ask your parish office whether photography and video are allowed during the sacrament and where photographers can stand. Some churches allow photography only for private baptisms.
Book 2 to 3 hours
The 2-hour minimum usually covers the ceremony and family portraits. Add an hour or two if you'd like the reception covered as well.
Plan portraits after the ceremony
Ask the priest whether you can stay for 15 to 20 minutes after the service for photos at the font or altar. Churches are often dim, so this time allows us to work carefully.
Consider video for the sacrament
Video records the prayers and blessings with sound. For First Communion Masses with many children, a second photographer or videographer can cover your child while the other covers the full ceremony.
Professional photography doesn't have to be expensive

FAQ
Baptisms, Christenings & First Communions in Kentucky: common questions
Do you cover baptism, christening or First Communion events everywhere in Kentucky?
Yes. Our own crews work across Kentucky, including Louisville, Lexington, Bowling Green and Owensboro. The price is the same in every city, because travel is included in the first hour.
Can you photograph inside the church during the baptism?
Where the church allows it. We confirm the rules with your parish in advance and work quietly without flash. If photography isn't permitted, we plan portraits immediately afterward.
Do you photograph Orthodox and other Christian ceremonies?
Yes. We cover Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant baptisms, christenings and First Communions, and we ask you about the specific order and customs of your church.
How much does baptism photography cost?
Photography is $250 for the first hour and $100 for each additional hour, so the 2-hour minimum is $350. Videography is $300 for the first hour and $200 for each additional hour.
Can relatives abroad watch the ceremony?
Yes, where the church permits it. We offer live streaming so family who can't travel can watch the ceremony as it happens.
When will we receive the photos?
Every photo is edited and retouched, and your online gallery of high-resolution images is usually ready in about one week.
