Taking pics during services/conferences

[tlofft]

Some great suggestions here.

Taking pictures in service is always a bit intimidating, but I think the hints here are good ones. I guess I've always done the don't look at people and look like you're supposed to be there thing.

We tend to take pictures only during special events mainly - baptisms, dedications, etc. And generally (when we're organized) we try and give copies to the parents or baptizees (is that a word), which I think they appreciate. We try and take some inconspicuous pictures at other times.

Its very hard getting good pictures of people praying or praising without feeling somewhat intrusive, but a long lens can help with that.

Just my $0.02...
