<p>Thanks Mitch. That's the kind of idea that I've been looking for.</p>

<p>No, I'm not scared of my assistant and I don't sell other people's work as my own.</p>

<p>I'm shooting a wedding this weekend and have an assistant helping out. She is another photographer who is just starting out and wants to use some to the photos that she gets in her portfolio and on her Facebook page. While she will only be using the images that she gets, she isn't the one who was hired for the wedding so I don't really want her putting her watermark on the images. How would you handle this?</p>

<p>I prefer to shoot street in b/w because I feel that color distracts the viewer from what the subject of the photo is. But that is just my 2 cents.</p>

<p>I don't respond to often to forum questions but I felt inclined to this time. Photography is mostly a hobby for me but I also do a little freelance work on the side. My full-time job is being a firefighter and believe me, we carry cheat-sheet. Not because we don't know what we are doing but because when a life is on the line we don't usually have time or get a second chance. We have one shot to get it right or someone dies. At two o'clock in the morning when we just can't seem to remember what pressure we need for that hoseline, or what that medication is for that the patient is on we have to look it up. </p>

<p>So I don't see anything wrong with having cheat sheets to jog your memory for setting shutter speed or aperture. After all, most of us aren't just pointing and shooting.</p>
