I'm a civil wedding officiant. Frequently, a photographer wants to take a photo of me notarizing the marriage license. In Florida, the bride's and groom's Social Security numbers are on the license. I make a point of covering that section of the license so identity theft by anyone seeing the photo afterwards is not possible.

As with all things in life, if approached with empathy and tact, you can achieve almost anything. If I may however, I would like to go off track slightly and mention registrars. It is nearly a matter of course for registrars to ban photographers from photographing the signing of the register as it happens and since I work in 'reportage style' I hate setting up a posed shot afterwards. I have contacted the main body for this sort of thing and was told that "as far as they were concerned it was against the law to make a 'mechanical copy' of a legal document".

Great Forum article.The feedback I mostly receive from clergy is unfortunately, due to the amount of part time, in experienced, unprofessional, wannabe photographers, deluding themselves they are professional and simply don't know how to conduct themselves in church, has lead to this worryingly increasing stance.
