I'll say this; I once went to a modern Art gallery, and aside from what you expect to see (paint slung on a canvas), they had a book that had been shot by a guy with a .22 caliber rifle. If that is art, then what we do definitely is!

I mean we don't just throw figures on the ground and snap shots. We plan (or at least I do!) What angle would be best? What lighting? What pose? What background? What accessories? Then on top of that, if it's not perfect, or it has imperfections, you break out photoshop or paint shop pro and fix it as best we can! I'm not looking to have my stuff hung in a gallery, but if any of these modern slop artists can say their stuff is "art" then so is what I do!
