Description
I saw her sitting on the stairs outside of a mall, talking with her friend. It seemed like a lively discussion. She was the first girl I’ve approached for this project. When I asked “Is it ok if I take your picture?” she comfortably said “Sure.” I was pleasantly surprised, but was still very nervous. As I took this photograph, I was actually struggling.. thinking: “Steadyyy… man, I hope she doesn’t notice my camera shaking.”Please check out my facebook page here: [link]

You too?
Each time I approach a stranger..the same thing happens!
Infusing a little humor always helps!
Terrific Shot!

I guess the camera, lens, settings are a secret? Nice work by the way.

I know that struggling shake, man. I get it every time I ask a stranger if I they'd mind me portraying them... that kick and the end results make it all worthwhile

I want to draw this, as a realistic portrait.. Since it's your photo, am I allowed to draw her ? And you can ask the girls herself, if you meet her sometimes again...

Hey Dan - Few months ago I started drawing this girl, as you asked my question if I can, yes. I didn't ever finished it and it was my last drawing so far, maybe ever. You can check the unfinished version if you like Here

Great depth of field. You've done something I've been thinking of for a long time. Just haven't gotten the nerve to walk up to someone and ask if I could take their picture.

Great shot! She has a very interesting look. I know what you mean by being nervous, I get nervous a lot to asking people if I can take their picture. I hope it gets easier
