Don’t smile

Portrait for Nick


When taking portraits its so natural for people to smile, as thats what you do isn’t it when some else lifts a camera to their eye. But infact its “unnatural”, and so I have to ask them not to smile but just relax.
I like this portrait because of the casual nature in which it was taken; relaxed over a coffee and impromptu, yet it projects a real character feel.
