Shooting in public places is well, very public.  You just never know who will talk to you or what they’ll say.   This beautiful girl questioned what we were doing and then told me I needed to photograph her.  Seriously where does one get that much self-confidence?  Not sure… My friend always says to ‘walk like […]
