HISTORIC ST. LUKE'S PHOTOGRAPHER'S GUIDELINES

Historic St. Luke’s Church is both a National Historic Landmark and a house of worship; therefore, we have provided some guidelines to assist you.   The staff member on duty represents St. Luke’s and is able to address any questions you may have during or just prior to the wedding ceremony.   Please contact the office of St. Luke’s Church at (757) 357-3367 if you have any questions before signing and returning this agreement.

GENERAL GUIDELINES:

  • NO PHOTOS MAY BE TAKEN DURING THE CEREMONY: Pictures are permitted in the church before and after the ceremony. For clarification, the ceremony begins when the Bridesmaids start down the aisle and ends when the Bride and Groom exit the church.
  • VIDEO CAMERAS:   Video cameras may be used ONLY in a stationary, unmanned and unobtrusive position in the balcony or in an altar box pew.   The camera may not be moved during the ceremony.
  • After the ceremony is over, we will begin showing the church.   This may be while you are still taking pictures.   We will workwith you on this to allow you time to take pictures, but please understand that we will not deny visitors access to the church at this time.
  • The photographer is to provide a photograph, as selected by the wedding couple, to Historic St. Luke’s for use on our website, documentation, and/or other publications.
