We follow the same pattern that we use for all apps:

Create a logger inside each class, setting the class type as the logger name and log everything that need to be logged inside the class to the local logger. Like this (for example... there are other ways to declare the logger):

private static readonly ILog _log = LogManager.GetLogger(MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType);

If you're so inclined you could try to weave a logging aspects throught your class, but sometimes you need finer grained control, which is why we go through the process of putting them in by hand.
