some of the things i learned from freshstart

• trust your camera - use your own because you have the "special kind of bonding"
• shoot objectively - coz you'd end up having the same pictures of those cute and cuddly freshies
• roam around - so you'd get nice angles and point of view. also, you'd get the side stories
• bring extra batteries - or even your battery charger
• utilize the maximum storage capacity of your memory card - as much as possible, don't delete pictures 'coz some look like were shot with a lomo (cool, right?)
• interact with your subject
• and make sure you're really in the documentation team.
