It's not that I think they're all especially wonderful or anything, but they keep stuck in my mind. I can't shake them. I realize looking back on it that I really enjoyed it, and that's why they're stuck. I liked setting up the camera, I liked getting the backgrounds ready and switching them around. It was just... fun!
I will tell you I'm rather surprised some of the people there let me do it. Aside from maybe one or two friends who seem to enjoy me taking their pictures, most seem... uninterested at the best and somewhat annoyed at the worst.Here I had a group of friends and a group of complete strangers and a group of mostly strangers. Aside from Phil (who I ended up getting through trickery) everyone agreed to have their picture taken. Some like Chad didn't look terribly impressed, but everyone else seemed to honestly enjoy it!
I think it's true what they say, that deep down everyone likes having their picture taken.
So with my having enjoyed it so much (and the people who I took the pictures of, they enjoyed it too. About half of them now use the portraits I took as their facebook profile pictures) I wonder what I will do next.
If I am going to take pictures of people in some sort of organized setting, what could I do? Not the colour background again since that has already been done (though I really really enjoyed it despite the final product looking something like glee), and I don't feel comfortable yet dealing with people who I don't know at all at all (friends of friends is fine.)
So what do I do?
