Making a Picture - focus through the chaos

What makes this picture special?

As a uk documentary wedding photographer I aim to tell the story of the wedding day. It is a real compliment to me when couples say that they hardly noticed I was there. Particulalry as so often I'm only a few feet away. I work close but in a natural and unobtrusive way. Imagine the couples surprise when scrolling through their gallery they see this photo.

This great storytelling moment as during the wedding breakfast we dancing and enjoyment for the singing waiters as they perform. The key moment is the juxtapositon between the focus of eating from someone who is completely unpreturbed by the noise and activity of the dancing that surronds him.
