General Stock Discussion / Does anyone work with a Partner/Spouse?

I am thinking of including another friend who is a trained photographer into my microstock production and starting a small two person stock photography operation. I feel we would have the potential to be more than twice as productive if there was a second person. I wonder how those of you who are husband and wife teams or just two people working together handle the logistics of having a coworker. What business model works for you. Should one person solely be responsible for editing or keywords or shooting or uploading or do you divide tasks equally and simply split profits equally. I am not looking to pay an employee an hourly wage, I simply want a partner who splits all earnings in the hopes that the division of labor makes us both more profitable, splitting equipment costs would also be a bonus I would think. Please share your experiences working with other people.
