It is the foundation of the Christian life and the door that opens access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism we are liberated from sin and regenerated as children of God, we become members of Christ and are incorporated into the Church and made partakers of its mission (cf. Council of Florence: DS 1314, CIC, can 204,1; CCEO 675.1): Baptism is sacramentum regenerationis per aquam in verb "(" Baptism is the sacrament of the new birth by water and the word ": Roman Catechism 2,2,5).


The name of the Sacrament:

It refers to the central rite that is celebrated, baptizing, which means "to submerge" "to enter into the water"; the "immersion" in the water symbolizes the act of burying the catechumen in the death of Christ, from where he rises by resurrection with him (cf Rom 6: 3-4, Col 2,12) as "new creature" 5.17, Ga 6.15).

Another name that receives this sacrament is a bath of "regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit" (Tt 3,5), because it means and realizes that birth of the water and the Spirit without which "no one can enter into the Kingdom of God" (Jn 3,5).

Baptism "is the most beautiful and magnificent of the gifts of God, we call it gift, grace, anointing, enlightenment, garment of incorruptibility, bath of regeneration, seal and all that is precious. Don, because it is conferred to those who do not contribute anything; grace, because it is even given to guilty; baptism, because sin is buried in the water; anointing, because it is sacred and real (such are those who are anointed); illumination, because it is light resplendent; clothing, because it covers our shame; bath, because lava; seal, because it keeps us and is the sign of the sovereignty of God "(St. Gregory Nazianzen, Oratio 40,3-4).

For Catholics, it is the first religious event in a person's life, since they usually do it during the first months of the baby's life or failing the first year. The arrival of the day is a combination of joy and anxiety at the same time because everything goes very well, because in addition to performing the religious act, parents and relatives also usually make a celebration either in a party room or in their homes, music, drinks, food, the popular cake that is common in a celebration, and of course the traditional album of photographs and videos that parents will keep as one of the most precious treasures in their family life.

Godfather or Confirmation Godmother

Godfather or Confirmation Godmother


To know exactly who should be the godfather of confirmation, let's talk a little about this sacrament:


"With Baptism and the Eucharist, the sacrament of Confirmation constitutes the whole of the" sacraments of Christian initiation, "whose unity must be safeguarded. It is therefore necessary to explain to the faithful that the reception of this sacrament is necessary for the fullness of baptismal grace.


The main sign used for Confirmation is anointing with oil. What's the point?


The anointing, in biblical and ancient symbolism, has many meanings: oil is a sign of abundance (cf. Dt 11,14, etc.) and joy (cf. Ps 23,5; 104,15); purifies (anointing before and after the bath) and gives agility (the anointing of the athletes and the fighters); is a sign of healing, for it softens bruises and wounds (cf. Is 1,6; Lc 10,34) and the anointed one radiates beauty, holiness and strength.

By Confirmation, Christians, that is to say, those who are anointed, participate more fully in the mission of Jesus Christ and in the fullness of the Holy Spirit which he possesses, so that his whole life may "give off the good odor of Christ" ( cf. Co 2: 15).


Godfather or Confirmation Godmother.


The role of the Godfather is not just to be in the ceremony. It begins with the concern for the previous preparation of the godson. In the case of this sacrament, they are chosen by the people who are receiving the sacrament, that is, the confirmed ones. However, not everyone can be able to fulfill this role, which is why it should be characterized by certain aspects such as:

  1. A person mature enough to fulfill their obligations.
  2. May he be Catholic, and have received the three sacraments of initiation: Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist.
  3. That is not impeded by the right to perform this function.


As we see this sacrament very important in the life of every Catholic, it is the third between baptism and Eucharist, and for this reason is worth a pleasant memory of this special day. Some families also decide to hold this event high, others with a small family reunion and others, with only the ceremony. Whichever option you decide Artview Studios will offer our services of Photography and Video, at the best prices.

Rice at the Wedding

Rice at the Wedding in New York
Rice at the Wedding in New York


It is the seed of the plant Oryza sativa. It is a cereal considered as a staple food in many culinary cultures (especially Asian cuisine), as well as in some parts of Latin America. Its origin is the subject of controversy among researchers; it is discussed whether it was in China or in India.


Along with the tradition of the white color in the wedding dress, to wear dark tones in the groom dresses or to throw the beautiful bouquet of bride to all the single women of the celebration, there are other customs of equal beauty in a wedding. One of them is the launching of rice to the bride and groom on their departure from the ceremony. The rice that is thrown at the end of the religious ceremony symbolizes the prosperity and fertility that is desired to the new marriage, so that it has a great family and abundance in "all the senses".


Oriental tradition


Throwing rice over the bride and groom is an ancient custom inherited from the East. Certainly Marco Polo's voyages to China and the expeditions of Portuguese sailors allowed some oriental traditions, such as this, to enter Europe through ports. However, some historians assert that this tradition also existed throughout the Roman empire.


Wheat grains


In all the Roman weddings, the brides wore a crown with small ears of wheat full of grains that represented the fertility. The groom, on the other hand, was the one in charge of breaking baked wheat cakes on the head of the bride, as a symbol of abundance.
Nowadays pink petals are also thrown, which represent a sweet and full future.


To throw rice to the bride and groom is a custom that has been preserved in Europe since the Middle Ages. At the wedding guests throw rice to the bride and groom in the hope that the couple will have many children.


Who throws it?


In ancient times, men and boys did, since women only participated in the ceremonies in the strictest privacy. Today the rice is thrown by all the guests and in some cases only the children of the nuptial procession are given. For Artiview Studios it will be a pleasure to capture with our lens that magical moment filled with desires of prosperity and fertility that we wish beforehand. Contact us and you will have a memory that will last for a lifetime.

Curiosities about the wedding dress.

Curiosities about the wedding dress.
Curiosities about the wedding dress.

The wedding is a commitment of love and life between two people, but it is also a set of traditions and preparations before and after the celebration. It is a balance between myths and legends, which have been respected for many generations, and that serve to wish good luck to the couple in the future; some are based on valid reasons, others are simple superstitions or popular beliefs.


Although all predict to be non-superstitious, almost all couples respect traditions as if they were an integral part of the ritual, to prevent things from going wrong by not respecting or not believing in the power of some legends. Then  Artview Studios, will present some curiosities about the costumes worn by the wedding couple:


The bride can not wear pearls because they are synonymous with crystallized tears that turn into trouble and sadness in married life.


The veil represents the youth and purity that the boyfriend will discover in a short time. In some religious ceremonies the veil is also a symbol of respect.


Removing and throwing pins from the bride's dress takes away bad luck.


With regard to the groom has to wear the tie always straight, never crooked, because it is a symbol of future infidelity.


Another widespread custom but without a precise reason is to combine the tie of the groom's suits with the gown of the godmother or the flowers of the bride. The color of the groom's tie has to be combined with his hair, his eyes, his skin or he has to follow his personal style.

Giving shoes to the groom before the wedding is like wishing you use them to escape and disappear. The couple's shoes have to be new, because they must be soft and fit the feet: as they have to do in the married life.
The bride does not have to make the bed the day of the wedding, because it is something that has to do the mother or the mother-in-law.


Lending the wedding dress to a friend will bring you trouble and bad luck. In fine many are the curiosities about this sacred sacrament, full of myths and legends, that many believe and others do not. The fact is that if you intend to celebrate your wedding and you do not have a photographer, contact  Artview Studios, experts in photography and video for different events, and in this case one of the most important in the life of the human being, your wedding.
