Lachapelle - I would be honoured to learn from any of these people.
I think the key to really being great is both passion and the willingness to never believe you know it all and keep learning. All of these image makers are eternal students and passionate artists. It simply isn't enough to just set up the lights and press the shutter. You need to create and find new ways to make something happen in the image - to make it live.
There are many other photographers whom I think are truly unique - three of these are Miles Aldridge, Mario Sorrenti and Richard Burbridge - they are people I find truly inspirational and would love to assist.
