I met Gus at Headshot Mania 1 and have enjoyed our interactions ever since. Like many in here with diverse professional/academic backgrounds, he has always stepped up to the plate and been there for me whenever I have that biting, nagging question about technique. He has been a true mentor and friend!
Gus is AWESOME!!!
Legend!!
