About Photography & Videography . . .

Photographers may take pictures prior to the ceremony, during the processional and recessional, and after the ceremony. However during the ceremony, pictures should be taken without a flash, to preserve the sacredness of the occasion.

Photographers are also asked to restrict their movement during the ceremony. Cameras may be set up in the choir loft and stationery cameras may be set up in the appropriate areas as shown in the diagram below. (Videographers must follow these same guidelines.)

Photographers & Videographers must be contacted and paid individually for their fees. 

IMPORTANT:  Due to other sacramental activities scheduled on Saturdays (Confession, Baptisms, Vigil Mass, etc.) we can only allow a half hour for post-wedding photographs.
