So it'd be a perfect group for them.

Here is an old Oriental proverb: *A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.* It is difficult to anticipate just how a situation will develop in every detail until you take a step forward and try out your present equipment.

His shoots with me were very collaborative and it was an incredible opportunity to be able to photograph him over the course of twenty years.
