So I was perusing the shoe selection at Buffalo Exchange tonight and I bumped into the raddest pair of Adidas I ever met in my life.
Moral of the story: I bought them shits.

I've been trying, over the last year or so, to work up the courage to ask strangers for portraits; and doing a pretty poor job of it. I want to, to work on my photography, to challenge myself to be more social and interactive and to give the gift of portraits. I've been doing a pretty crap job of it so far, getting a few pictures this summer from people that we were "working" with. Today while in Buffalo Exchange, the light was coming in through the window and hitting this persons face as they were checking out a guest. Not only did they have appeal, but the side lighting was great. I watched for a bit, surely looking like a creeper, and eventually asked them if I could take a quick picture of them. They said yes, that they have been asked by others, I took my snap, showed them and then scurried away. It's a first step, but not all that I wanted it to be. I had questions to ask for conversation but forgot that step; what's your name, what's your story, why face paint, and why the design? Maybe next time. Maybe with more practice. For now, just the picture and my story.

I purchased this "Mexican Peasant" dress at Buffalo Exchange over 3 years ago to wear on my 23rd birthday. Despite being of Mexican providence I like to think of it as my Hansel & Gretel dress as the embroidery has some Eastern European/German flair to it.
