Very true.

I too don't know how Cartier-Bresson managed without two card slots.

It is likely that he had one or more paid assistants. "Lackies" seems
to be unnecessarily pejorative. Photographers today hire people to
assist them with lighting, schlepping, and whatnot. The wedding
photographer depicted here has two assistants for a location
shoot‹unless he was also assisted by the photographer who shot the
advertising photos, in which case it was three assistants. That is not
atypical

and-wedding-portraits.

William Henry Jackson also photographed his assistant

I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that
you will say in your entire life.

I reckon the bloke with that 1,400 pound camera must have had some assistance.


Actually, he had some assistants.

Did these assistants take the photo ?
There's a differnce between assistants and having assistance.


I don't know about the 'taking' but apparently they did develop the
image with the aid of a bucket and mop.
