Photographer Brit Milah Paris 1 - Jewish ceremony, Family, Elegance | Laurent Baranes

Brit Milah photographer in Paris 1er. Laurent Baranes discreetly captures your Jewish ceremony: mohel, blessings, family, reception, tradition and emotion in an elegant setting.

Paris's 1st arrondissement: tradition and discretion

The 1st arrondissement is one of the oldest districts in Paris. It's home to historic places of worship, light-filled apartments, Sephardic and Ashkenazi synagogues, as well as many discreet and elegant reception venues, ideal for a religious family celebration such as a Brit Milah.

I'm Laurent Baranes, a professional photographer ranked 57ᵉ worldwide by the WPE, specializing in high-end Jewish family events. I accompany you with discretion, sensitivity and absolute respect for the ritual, to preserve a faithful and beautiful trace of this founding moment.

Places suitable for a Brit Milah in Paris 1st arrondissement

Religious sites

  • Synagogue de la rue Sainte-Anne (Paris 1): small community, ideal for intimate ceremonies
  • Nearby synagogues in the Marais or 9th arrondissements, often chosen for their accessibility
  • Brit at home: most families choose to entertain at home or in a private room

Family receptions

  • Haussmann-style private or family apartment
  • Private hotel or lounge in a kosher or certified restaurant
  • Parisian kosher caterers (Glatt, Beth Din, Sephardic or Ashkenazi)
  • Traditional welcome with kiddush, bread, wine and family buffet

A typical Brit Milah

  1. Reception of relatives (often in the morning, around 8:30 or 9 a.m.)
  2. Religious ceremony led by the mohel: blessings, presence of sandak, Hebrew name
  3. Rabbi's or father's speech
  4. Kiddush / kosher brunch in continuity
  5. Family photos, natural portraits, serene and symbolic atmosphere

My photographic approach

  • Smooth, unobtrusive reporting, adapted to the rhythm of the mohel and the family
  • Focus on symbolic gestures (berakhot, child's outfit, looks)
  • Promoting intergenerational family ties
  • Careful composition, natural light
  • Private online gallery, delivered in high-resolution with short lead times

Testimonial

"Our son's Brit Milah took place at home in the 1st arrondissement. Laurent was extremely discreet and respectful. He captured the essential without ever imposing. The images are sober, true and full of emotion."
- Sarah & Gabriel, Paris 1er
