You've got a few weeks, get her to put you in touch with the clergy who will officiate.
I'm guessing this is a Roman Catholic service, so talk to the priest. Have him show you where you'll be standing & walk you through how it will be done. That also gives you a chance to find out what the church's rules are so you don't inadvertently run afoul of them. On 7/17/2017 18:46, Larry Colen wrote:
A friend asked me to photograph her child's baptism in a few weeks. I've never been to one, so I've got little idea of how to prepare. She said it's a community baptism, and it could be two kids or twenty. She said the last one the photographer didn't do a good job in the dark. I expect low light and no flash, though I don't know how low, so I'll want fast glass. I'm not sure how close I'll be able to get. I've got no idea of how the ceremony goes. She said something about the priest greeting outside and that also being a chance for photos. Are there any things in particular that I should know about, or be aware of, either photographically or culturally? If it matters, her in-laws are all Mexican.
