Seconded Shooter

Well I am not a season wedding photog, but I have the opportunity to follow a wedding photog that has been shooting film for years and still does. Can someone give me some advice on the roll I should play, were I should be etc. I have shot two weddings in my adventure to be a photog. This is hard for me because I never been a second shooter. I am afraid that my creative juices would be over powering me and I might get in the way. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Shouldn't you ask the main photographer?

I think you run a greater risk getting advice from others than by calling up the photog and asking if you two could sit down for 15 mintues and discuss the role he'd like you to play. IF you do a search in here for second shooter, somewhere there's a thread about it, that will at least give you an idea of what some photographers expect, so you can ask him which, if any, of those things, he'd like you to do. Good luck!
