I've never done one before. Obviously, I'm going to need to talk to the parish to find out their rules for photography (other than no flash). But are there any particular things I should worry about?> Steven, There is nothing to worry about, a baptism is a very easy going sacrement ( I have a son and 7 nieces and nephews and have photographed them all. ) Depending on the light in the church, please, check with the priest, but I have never had a problem using a little fill flash, move around a little. Talk to the mother and father and the godparents, they can move around a little to 'open up the action'. Talk to the celebrants, let them know what you want to do, it's a happy occassion- have fun.
