When I shoot a wedding, I prefer that guest photographers remain in
their seat and avoid using flash during the ceremony. No one has ever
asked if they could get up and shoot or use flash. A few have used
point and shoot flash from their seats, but they're usually far enough
away that it's not a problem. At the reception, you should feel free
to wander and shoot as you wish as long as you don't shoot any of the
photograher's setups or get in the way of a shot.

I'll be bringing my camera and such. I sent him a quick note, but he's
probably already left for setting things up.
What's the polite way to deal with the pro photographer, if there is
one? Should I introduce myself and ask if they mind if I take photos?
Or just try to blend in with the crowd?
I suppose I should stick to p-ttl rather than optically slaving
strobes if I use them, so my optically slaved doesn't trigger off of
their flash. :)

The first step is learning to take great photos,
the second step is learning to throw away ones that are merely good.
