They're decently good friends. They've invited you to their small wedding. They've got a hired guy, but he's shooting solo and doesn't look (forgive me here) especially over-the-top talented. He's shooting nothing but on-camera flash shots, and even if he's Michelangelo reincarnated, he can't be everywhere at once. And you... you have your small, quiet, Fuji X-T1 with the 23 and 56 lenses on your shoulder.
It's not your place to do anything. You CERTAINLY will not be "working" or anything approaching it -- not getting in anyone's way, not assembling shots, not posing people, not standing on any chairs to get up high, etc. Just standing around as you already were... and maybe sneaking a few shots.
Ok, or not? I felt a little guilty, but I couldn't help it. This one especially... he's in the background chimping as they walk towards me down the aisle. I assume he got no shots of them for this? I got 5 as they progressively got closer.

I feel like if they didn't ask me to shoot pics, I shouldn't shoot pics out of respect, or something. But man, I just felt like I was watching someone drown, and I could help a tiny bit without being spotted. And I sent them a shared folder...
