Click! proved to be the rugged noise quaking the evening silence. Escorting its echo was a split-second explosion of brilliance, illuminating clarity better than the vermillion glows twitching at the crown of melted wax.

Swiveling her gaze astray from the altar, prayers put on hold, oceanic irises need not to travel far. For, at the nave, the source of disruption stood—a deer in headlights.

Camera in hand checks out.

"A photographer?" The possibility renders curiosity within. With a tug at Leonard's furry paw, exiting the shrunken passage between pews came with her trusty companion.

Once out, confirmation for her suspicions ensued. "Wait, it's you!" emitted through an eye-reaching grin. "You take pictures for the school's newspaper, right?"

"And... did the photoshoots for the soccer team." Such admission delivered an air-sucking gasp from her.

"No wonder you looked familiar!" Your work, she'd seen. The capture of flow, of beauty, and wonder. A composition carefully crafted for light and color's harmonization. To transfer that knack from portrait to structures?

For you to immortalize her sanctuary, a house for the Lord, with just a tap?

No doubt it'll be unbelievably good.

"If you're interested, I know the best spots for pictures!" Giddiness pervaded the expanse, reaching the peaks of ribbed vaults.

"There's the altar," directed your gaze to the foremost land. Flying buttresses shroud it in mystique shadows, yet the rose window's stained panels—"especially stunning at night. It looks like it glows, bathes the crucifix in kaleidoscopic colors. Isn't that enchanting?"

"There's the gargoyles, too!" and outstretched a dainty digit towards the portal of heavy wood. "Just out that doorway, you'll see them watching over the church like ancient guardians."

"Even though they look like..." that, "they're neat-looking," chuckled she.

"It might be challenging to capture them from down here."

"So, maybe, for the meantime, just me and Leonard?" Her, and that teddy bear's one eyed smile. "He's quite a poser."
