Nice to Meet You Sweetie (Stranger 36/100)

It’s been quite a while I haven’t added a new image to my 100 Strangers Project but it was always in my mind.

 

Last night I was invited to photograph a charity event, organized by my high school friends. There are lots of applications for a scholarship and the aim of the event was to raise some funds in order to support these applicants.

The idea was interesting; a well known Latin singer’s band was to play, after a shopping mall was closed. Here the shopping malls stay open until 10 PM and the event was planned to start at 10.15.

 

Sadly it was a little expensive for my budget but I was dying to attend. My photography saved me and the organizing committee asked me to be a guest. As you can easily imagine, I accepted right away and attended joyfully.

 

This beautiful lady was there along with 3 friends and they will be welcoming guests and serving drinks One of these three ladies was pretty interesting with a freckled face but she refused me when I asked. Damn… I need to learn to omit the word ‘internet’.

 

I strolled around for a while and come across with her. She was beautiful. I stayed near for some time and tried to guess how the background will look like. But time was limited as guests were about to enter the concert zone. I asked, she cheerfully accepted and I barely had the time for a quick shot.

 

I wish I had my reflector was with me but as I didn’t want to carry it all through the night I left it at the car.

 

The event was a total success. There were a lot of people and I’ve enjoyed it a lot.
