I'm trying to figure out how to have a two level user relationship.

Photographers have clients.  Clients have one photographer.  Both are
Users.

So I've got a User model that looks like this:
========================================================
class User < ActiveRecord::Base

  has_many :client_associations, :foreign_key =>
'client_id', :class_name => 'Association', :dependent => :destroy
  has_many :clients, :through => :client_associations

  has_many :photographer_associations, :foreign_key =>
'photographer_id', :class_name => 'Association', :dependent
=> :destroy
  has_one :photographer, :through => :photographer_associations

  def self.find_by_login_or_email(login)
    User.find_by_login(login) || User.find_by_email(login)
  end

end
========================================================
And an Association model that looks like:
========================================================
class Association < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :client, :class_name => 'User'
  belongs_to :photographer, :class_name => 'User'
end

When I fill it with some data and fire up the console, running
user.clients.all or user.photographer just gives me an empty array.

What am I doing wrong?
