Today was something completly new for us we had the privilage to photograph a baptism at the lovely Nottingham Cathedral.
We were to photograph both of Maxine's children who were aged 3 and 10, having never photographed at St Barnabas Cathedral i was really looking forward to getting there early and study the light.
Well i was completly over welmed it is an absolutly stunning place to be in and such a wonderful opportunity to work here.
We met with the Father who was to carry out the ceremony and find out what was and was not allowed to be done during the ceremony.
There were 2 other baptisms taking place at the same time so we both had to think on our feet and make sure we were ready when it was Maxine's time.
The turn out in total including all the other Baptism's taking place was in excess of 150 people the atmospher was fantastic and you could hear the clapping and the joy as each Baptism took place.
We then proceeded to the south bank bar in westbridgford were Maxine and Mike layed drinks and a meal on for everyone.
