I love « stolen photos », spontaneous ones, those where people do not know they are being photographed. I try to be as discreet as possible for these precious moments.
But…
I take photos of what is happening, and I will not lie to you: if nothing special happens, you will not get « special » photos. Try to make your day unique, with « details », as the lights which create the atmosphere of your party. But over everything, your guests are the ones who will make each moment « photo interesting », It does not mean being clowns all day long!! But they have to be be implied in the most beautiful day of your life by a sincere involvement, friendly, sincerely, with good mood or contemplation, in laughs or furtive tears.

Of course I appreciate if I get the same meal as your guest, but it is not necessary because I will eat it cold most of the time.
Most catering companies offer very good cold meal trays. I will be able to have my meal without depending on the rythme of a wedding meal which not very compatible with photography.
But having a table alone or with other contractors is nearly a must, and if possible in the same room as the couple to avoid missing important moments.
