twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2012.03.22

So it's come to this: photographers preparing for photo shoots by first checking in with the police.

Respect your efforts, respect yourself. Self-respect leads to self-discipline. When you have both firmly under your belt, that's real power.

—Clint Eastwood
