Catholic Baby Baptism in Nolita, Manhattan (The Basilica of St. Patrick's Old Cathedral)
I shoot a lot of baptisms around NYC, and every one is so unique and lovely! The Blakke family was celebrating the Catholic christening of their son at the beautiful The Basilica of St. Patrick's Old Cathedral in Nolita with many of their friends and family. We took posed family photos both before and after the private ceremony.
Here are some of my favorite images from this shoot (click/tap to view full size and un-cropped):
