A field trip to a cemetery.

Hi all,
I'm an inexperienced photographer with D60 Nikon camera and an 18-135 mm f/3.5-5.6 lens. I'm headed to a cemetery for a photo shoot early in the morning tomorrow. Can anyone give me some useful tips.

Any simple 'do's and 'dont's would also be helpful.

Cheers,
ANi

It is best not to shoot at cemetery. You will be disturbing the deads. pls respect them. There should be many places for you to shoot other than graveyard.

It may be late for some advice, since you were planning on doing it this morning, but here's my opinion. I don't think it's disrespectful if you do it in a respectful way. First, I would check at the office to make sure it is okay with them. They may have some rules of what you can and can't do. Never shoot other people while they are mourning. I would dress tastefully. And using available light as opposed to flash could capture a more subdued and moody feel. Good luck!
