For the first time I attended a photoshoot in the middle of a celebration for this girl's 15th birthday in a Christian church, where this celebration had characteristics of its own. Her parents happened to be the pastors of this congregation and, as such, led this special moment all the way. I was impressed by some of the ritual details I was seeing. For example, they called this moment a "coronation" of the girl as "queen" and also gave her a ring. There were also other typical manifestations of these places such as dancing and musical groups with songs of praise to God. Finally it was time for the photos in the midst of a large number of people around us and inside a modern church with very little space, all of which made this a very complicated session. Nevertheless, we got the job done and I think the results were satisfactory for everyone. Enjoy!
