Ettiquette (or however you spell it)

That's why the two shooter method is so good for the bride and groom. One photog stays on the couple, and the other is sent off to do detail shots, guest shots, and different angle coverage.

That's also the reason many wedding photogs are totally open to the idea of an apprentice. Yeah, they are helping potential competion, but it's also a massive help to them. After all, there is plenty of room for all of us.

In my contract, I am the ONLY photog to be there in a professional capacity.

It's in mine too. Mine actually states that ANY other photography is at MY discretion. I don't mind much what others do, just so long as they don't interfere with me doing my job. To date, I've only once had to tell someone to "put it away," and that was a relative with an instamatic. I hate DJs though.
