You tell them in no uncertain way that you are not a professional photographer and that if they want professional photos they need to hire one.

you stick with the 200mm, stay as far out the way as possible and fucking spray the whole event but mainly the kid. you tell them you need a specific vantage point for then the baby is being drowned so you can actually get the moment captured.

Ask someone with some more skills than you to PP a couple of the best photos, if youre 'EXTREMELY' lucky /p/ might even do this for you.

I've been the family photographer, so for my niece and nephews baptism I was a given choice, wasn't asked, just a default option.
So, you're probably that guy in the family.

I was asked to shoot a wedding, but I strongly declined, several times. That shit is a whole different thing.

Anyway, as for you OP, going analog will take time. They'd most likely want to post that shit on facebook.
My brothers wife wanted my photos straight out of the camera, but I told her, also several times, that that's not how it works.

So ask if they can wait for the photos till they are done on your end, or just go full digital.
You can also have both with you.

If possible, ask everyone involved if you can be up close clacking away.
I wasn't until the whole procedure was done. So I sat kindly in the front row with tele lens.

But that was a while ago, so I'd day those poor priests are used to have them being in selfies, they might not mind if you don't ask.

ffuuuuuuk
I abhor that watermark

>Should I say fuck digital and go full analog?
Are you amazing at shooting film?

Snap away with the d3300 and you will get enough shots that it will be fine

to keep as far away from the child assault as possible while being able to document it for future reference.

I gave some Go Pros to my cousins and told the "get as close as you can and point it at the baby"

I got what you'd expect. Doesn't matter.
