When it comes to the sacraments of the Catholic Church, baptism and First Communion are often the most photographed. But what about Confirmation? Despite being the final sacrament of initiation, it often gets far less attention. Let’s explore the reasons Confirmation isn’t photographed as often — and why families should consider capturing this powerful moment!

Two weeks ago, I had the privilege of photographing a Confirmation portrait session for a wonderful young woman. Confirmation is such a significant sacrament in the Catholic faith, and it was an honor to be trusted to document this milestone for her and her family. It was a unique experience that combined faith, tradition, and the joy of celebrating this young woman’s life and commitment to her faith.

A few weeks ago, I had the privilege of experiencing Saint Timothy’s Annual Auction Gala for the first time. What made the night even more meaningful for me was experiencing it not just through my lens, but as a parent. I saw the same joy, generosity, and faith that drew my family to Saint Timothy’s shining through every smile and interaction. I’m grateful I could capture these moments — both as a photographer and as someone who calls this community home.
