This-is-Real

Description
Created for TLP's BYOC Challenge Sept 2025

Met this guy at church a couple of weeks ago, when I told him I thought the shirt he was wearing looked like a scrapbooking paper. Some ladies behind me chuckled, they got it. And he said, "I get it, I look for patterns all around me, I'm an artist." That's it, that's the totality of the conversation. Little did I know that he had just gotten out of jail. He had met our pastor, a chaplain there, who shared the gospel with him and he believed! Yesterday, he got baptized in the Willamette River a couple of blocks from our church in Harrisburg. Such a special moment.

What an amazing moment to capture. Love the photos of the baptism, and the title. I also really like the clustering. Beautiful!
 
That's SO cool! I love the scrapbooking paper shirt back story and that he met a chaplain while in jail and then was baptized! That's great stuff right there!
 
What a great occasion to document! Love the photo series and the hexagons in the background that ties everything together.
