You've picked the ideal choice for printing photos.

To begin with don't deviate from the basics during the learning phase. Use
only Epson inks and only Epson Premium Photo Glossy.
You haven't mentioned the photo software you will be using to make prints
with?

I would suggest investing in a good monitor calibration system. That way
your prints will come out indentical to what you see on your monitor.
Personally I use Spyder2 by Colorvision, but others should do just as well.

High end Epson printers like the R800 are unforgiving of calibration/color
management errors.
A printer like this often seems worse than lower end printers if you do not
calibrate your monitor with an external device and learn how to use color
management.
On the other hand, if you understand or are willing to learn how to do
things properly, you may be astounded at the quailty of images you can print
even from humble image capture devices.

Use only Epson ink for best results and a clog free printhead.

The R800 is designed with some specific targets in mind.
1) It uses pigment colorant inks, which provide greater archival result.
2) Since pigment inks can provide a slightly narrow gamut (color range)
this printer adds red and blue ink to the usual Cyan, Magenta and
Yellow, to provide wider red and blue color blends.
3) Since pigment inks tend to leave a surface residue that varies in
glossiness based upon the density of the ink layer, this printer offers
a high gloss solution to even the gloss out when using the Ultragloss
Ultrachrome inks.
This printer is a bit more costly to run because it requires the glossy
optimized coating, and specialty inks.
