monica at my wedding my cousin just asked if I wanted him to take some shots of us getting ready before we went to the church, this was before the pro was even around. That's what I would do, and like those above said when the pro sets up a shot ignore it, there is no need for the same shot in 2 different camera's. There is probably 70% of the day that there is no photographer around, early in the day when the bride and groom are getting ready, there are always members of the weddding party standing around while the posed shots are being taken, and depending on how long thier photographer sticks around, there might be some really really great shots towards the end of the reception...because I'm sure everyone will still be sober!
I'm not sure what kind of photog you had, but most people I know get there as the bride and groom prepare, and don't leave until the tail lights on your limo fade away.
If your photog wasn't around for 70 percent of the day....they sucked. Harshly sucked. Don't blame the rest of us for your experience.
On a side note, if it's not too personal, where did you find this "pro"? How much did you pay. You don't have to answer that, but sometimes you get what you pay for.
