In newer versions of lightdm there is a guest-session option in the
config. Otherwise you should set your default session to the one you
prefer.

Title:
LightDM doesn't use GNOME Shell as guest session after uninstall of
Unity
Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
LightDM doesn't automatically use GNOME Shell as guest session after
uninstall of Unity. There is not even a graphical user interface for
setting the default session.
When a user removed Unity, but did not change any setting manually and
tries to start a guest session, the user will see just a plain
background image with no interface at all. Only Ctrl+Alt+Delete allows
to logout.
As a workaround you have to manually edit "/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf"
and change "user-session=ubuntu" to "user-session=gnome-shell".
