One word of advice for you shooters out there who have a passion for creating good work. Get yourself a few assistants. I have 3 now and it really makes my life much easier. The less I have to stress about things....the more time & energy I can focus on creating pictures. Finding the budget for assistants is the trick.... but once you figure out how to make it happen - you'll notice your work improving!

Good luck!!!
