Holy Cross Christening Photographer, Dublin

Hi, I'm Cara, a Dublin family and Christening photographer, specialising in traditional family and child portraits as well as natural and unposed unscripted documentary style photography that captures authentic moments as they unfold - perfect for your baby's baptism and other milestone family events.

Here, at this Christening in Holy Cross Church, Dundrum, there are family portraits with baby boy at the alter and by the beautiful stained glass windows, making the most of the church's natural light. Most recently also at Church of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin, Church of Mary Immaculate, Rathmines, Our Lady Queen of Peace, Ballsbridge.

Beautiful baptism family photos for your family to treasure through the years, both during the mass, and before and after covering your preparations and family celebrations.
