Lara - stranger 485

Lara’s pink top made her standout from the crowd as she came towards me so I stepped forward and introduced my stranger project to her. I decided to photograph Lara where we were as we’d met by a church that had some hedges, bushes and trees along it’s boundary wall and I thought the green of the leaves would really set off the colour of Lara’s top. Lara took her glasses off for the photograph.

 

Lara told me she was from London but was now living in Nottingham whilst she attended university. Lara said she was studying politics and international relations before moving on to a law course as she’d like to be a barrister.

 

In her free time, Lara likes to read – mainly romance, fantasy and mystery books. Lara also enjoys looking at world media. Lara is also a keen cook and said her favourite dish to make is lasagne.

 

I asked Lara to describe herself in one word and she said impathetic.

 

Is there an item Lara can’t live without? “My glasses,” she said.

 

If I could grant Lara a wish, what would it be for? “Eternal happiness,” she replied.

 

Thank-you Lara for saying yes to being photographed for my stranger project. I hope you like your portrait.
