The Baptism of Baby Paul

I was recently asked to take photos of baby Paul Yeow's baptism by Choo Ki and I willingly obliged as this was my first time doing so! For those unaware, it is the Christian religious practice of baptising an infant to join the family of the church. This baptism ceremony is done amidst prayers by the congregation and by sprinking water on the infant's head.

It was an interesting ceremony and it was evident that Choo Ki and her husband were absolutely devoted to their firstborn. I have to admit that I was surprised by Paul's good temperament as he was completely unafraid of the many strangers staring at his cherubic cheeks and especially with me pointing a gigantic lens at his face! I have been duly informed by Choo Ki that he has been trained from the start to face the camera which is good! Below are the pictures that were taken during the baptism ceremony.
