Hey Nobie, I know how you feel. I'm definatly NOT a paparazzi style photographer but my wife works in the film industry doing
PR and promotions and I occasionally get roped in as the "Official FOX Photographer". (probably cause I'm cheap!)
Anyway, a few weeks ago we were at a local music festival and had some models dressed up to promote the film 27 Dresses. I was running around shooting away while the models walked among the crowd and did their thing; then low and behold, this young guy leaps out of the crowd, drops on one knee and proposes to one of the girls!!
I'm amazed I got the shot at all I was laughing so hard!!
Anyway he comes up to me afterwards and askes if I'm from the New Zealand Herald (local paper) Joking, I say "no, but it'll probably appear on YouTube." He ran off screaming at the top of his lungs "Waa Hoo, I'm Gonna Be Famous!!" What a laugh....
Then of course the old "hey that dudes taking photos, lets jump in the shot!! This just plain bugs me.
We could go on and on and on......
