Photographer Brit Milah Paris 8 - Jewish ceremony, Family, Elegance | Laurent Baranes

Brit Milah photographer in Paris 8ᵉ. Laurent Baranes documents every moment: mohel, blessings, family portraits, sacred atmosphere and respect for tradition.

Paris 8ᵉ: distinction, calm and family tradition

The 8ᵉ arrondissement, between the Champs-Élysées, Parc Monceau and Madeleine, is a prestigious residential neighborhood. Ideal for organizing a Brit Milah at home or with a small group, it offers serenity, accessibility and numerous kosher service providers nearby.

I'm Laurent Baranes, a photographer specializing in private Jewish ceremonies in Paris and abroad. Ranked 57ᵉ worldwide by the WPE, I offer an approach that is at once documentary, aesthetic and deeply respectful of ritual.

Where to hold a Brit Milah in Paris 8ᵉ

Ceremony

  • At home: the preferred choice for privacy and simplicity
  • Private oratory or community hall near boulevard Haussmann or de Miromesnil
  • Synagogue Buffault (boundary 8ᵉ/9ᵉ) for more official ceremonies

Reception

  • Family apartments or private rooms in luxury hotels
  • Nearby kosher restaurants or specialized caterers (Beth Din, Glatt)
  • On-site kosher brunch: traditional formula or high-end catering

A typical Brit Milah in the 8ᵉ arrondissement

  1. Guests arrive early in the morning (often at 8 or 9 a.m.)
  2. Religious ceremony conducted by an approved mohel, in the presence of the sandak
  3. Blessings, speeches and Hebrew naming
  4. A convivial moment over kiddush or brunch
  5. Natural photos: family portraits, moments of tenderness and transmission

My photographic style

  • Intimate, fluid and discreet
  • Capture key ritual gestures, genuine emotions, peaceful atmosphere
  • Use natural light, without intrusive flash
  • Fast delivery via private HD gallery
  • Options: luxury albums, prints for grandparents, keepsake boxes

Testimonial

"Our son's Brit Milah took place in our apartment in the 8ᵉ arrondissement. Laurent worked in silence, with absolute respect for the ceremony. He captured every emotion, every gesture with extreme accuracy."
- Esther & Raphaël, Paris 8ᵉ
