Zara: Stranger # 27

Zara was working as front of house in a London restaurant where we had a meal. As soon as I saw her I knew I wanted to ask her to take part in the stranger project. She was so busy that I almost didn't ask. When I plucked up courage she said yes but how can we do this quickly...so I knew I only had one shot at it. Ideally I would have asked her to pose holding some menus but time was of the essence so I just clicked and this is the result. I would have liked less light through her hair and more on her face but I was just so pleased she let me take her photo at all. She is a really lovely and beautiful lady and I don't think this really does her justice, but thank you Zara.
