Let’s talk about one of my favorite milestones to capture—baptism photos! There’s something so special about documenting this important step in a child’s faith journey, and sweet Nora’s baptism photos at the Draper Temple were an absolute dream.
Why Take Baptism Photos?
If you have an almost-eight-year-old in the LDS faith, you know how exciting this time is! Baptism photos are the perfect way to capture their joy, innocence, and growing testimony. Plus, they’re only this little once—why not freeze this moment in time with beautiful, meaningful images?
Nora’s Baptism Photos—Pure Joy!
Nora was all smiles from the moment she arrived. She twirled in her dress, giggled between shots, and absolutely radiated happiness. We captured classic temple portraits, fun candid moments, and a few quiet, reflective images that truly showcased her sweet spirit.
One of my favorite shots? The one where she looked up at the Draper Temple with a sparkle in her eye—such a simple moment, but it said everything about her heart and faith.
Tips for the Best Baptism Photos
Thinking about booking baptism photos for your child? Here are a few tips to make the session amazing:
Golden hour is magic. Early morning or evening light makes your child (and the temple) glow!
Keep it simple. A white dress or suit, clean backgrounds, and natural moments make the best photos.
Bring a keepsake. Scriptures, a CTR ring, or even a handwritten note can add a personal touch.
Let them have fun! The best smiles come when kids are relaxed and happy.
Do you have an upcoming baptism in your family? Let’s capture this special time with a baptism photo session that’s full of light, joy, and meaning. Whether it’s baptism photos at Draper Temple or another special location, I’d love to create memories you’ll cherish forever.
