BTW I'd be interested to hear how you'd suggest a pro somehow avoids worst case scenario, with an aisle full of 'photographers' with iPads leaning into the shot. Levitation? Crane hire? Steps? Kicking the guests? After all it's up to him to handle it?
...
That's your answer?Get in a better position? Be more aware of their surroundings? Make an educated guess that every wedding there's ever been people's heads and arms will be leaning out down the aisle?
...
What's a better position to photograph the B&G coming down the aisle, if it's not in the aisle?
You'll have to do better than that if you want to seriously answer a question.
As someone who has this to deal with, my answer is to make a feature of what's there, So if the traditional aisle shot isn't available, I'll shoot one of the cameras with the B&G OoF in the background, or we'll get shots of the hoards of photographers that are part of every wedding.
Like I said, I've never had to resort to asking a guest to stop shooting.
...
If a pro can't work that out or hold peoples attention for 1/500th of a second then maybe it's not the right career for you.
I didn't think it was about me, but as you can see from my answer above, I have it covered just fine, thanks for the career advice though.
