The Young Photographer's Thread

^^ very cool project -- I'd be interested to do something similar. How do you go about getting them to sit in for a picture?

MDavey -- always love your portraits.

thanks buddy

I literally walk up to them and say that im trying to take 100 photos of 100 strangers. i found that when i introduce myself first, with a whole heap of equipment (these were done with lightstand/umbrella etc) they get a little intimidated. most of them have been pretty open to the idea and dont mind. i leave it up to them if they wanna sit/stand/smile or not etc

I see. I figured you were using some lighting since a lot of the shots have the sun behind.

I think this would be a fun way to shoot around campus.

What makes me smile everyday.

Haven't really taken many pictures in the last couple years. Between work and class I just get caught up in life and forget I even have a camera.

Snapped this selfie yesterday while I was fixing an exhaust leak I have.

MDavey- Do you just hang out with gorgeous females all the time or something?
