You can tell by this rare behind the scenes photo that my photography sets are dull, tedious, boring, tiresome, very hard, and absolutely no fun whatsoever.

Most people actually think that being a photographer is a cushy job, but it’s not. It’s a really tough job. The hours are long and the working conditions are not always ideal. But I still have to put my nose to the grindstone, grit my teeth, trudge through it, persevere, and… do the best I can with what, and especially who, I have to work with.

Woe is me.

But, no, no, I don’t expect any sympathy. None at all.

However, a little understanding of the difficulties that I have to face on a daily basis would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
