WHAT IS BAPTISM?
The baptism is the first important event in the life of the newborn as established in the Catholic religion. In this celebration, the baby is initiated into Christianity. This symbolic initiation consists of a ritual in which water is used to seal the adoption of Catholicism. The traditional way was to immerse the baptized in water completely, but nowadays it is often used to spill water on the head of the newborn or simply to splash the water in case the spill is not considered appropriate. It should be said that baptism does not always have newborn children as protagonists, but people of all ages who have decided to convert to Catholicism at any stage of their life can also be baptized.
HOW DOES A BAPTISM ORGANIZE?
The baptism is usually celebrated around the month of life of the baby, and in many cases, can be a headache at the time of the organization, the size of it and the large number of people to take into account.
The easiest to organize, is to break down and chronologically order the steps to follow. More or less, the order would be next.

First you have to decide on the age in which you want to baptize the child, and can vary between the few weeks of life to the year or even later, a decision that depends entirely on the parents.
Second, the choice of the godparents is made, since, together with the parents, they are indispensable people in the ceremony, and their availability should be taken into account when choosing the date on which the ceremony will take place.
Thirdly, it is time to look for churches and set the exact date, to make sure that the church will be available on the day that suits the above mentioned people, as well as to know the particular rules of the place, and to undertake the pertinent bureaucratic process, prior to the ceremony and the talks about it.
Fourth, and essential for the ceremony to be shaped for posterity, is the hiring of one or more photographers to immortalise each moment of the day, impregnating the personal essence of the ceremony in each snapshot, since, as we said before, the o the protagonist of the ceremony will not be aware nor remember for herself years later, but calm, you have Artview Studios so that you have a beautiful memory of that special day.
