Program Management
Creating a perfect shot is itself a project. From setting a goal, planning (situation, weather, lightling, model, equipment etc.) and the execution according to the plan. The only way to take a proper shot is to be ready to shoot at any moment. Confidence and speed are your dearest allies.
