100 - 23
Today at Jeremy and Melissa's wedding reception, I sat across the table from a guy who looks like he could be Kerr Smith's long lost brother. I mentioned the resemblance to Sharon and she immediately agreed. I was so taken by his looks that I asked him if I could shoot his portrait for 100 and he obliged. My two favorite shots are below.
I'm getting much better at being approaching people for 100 and haven't been turned down too many times. One thing I'm noticing is that I'm much better at finding good male subjects than women. I'm not entirely sure why that is, but I do know I'm much more hesitant to approach a woman than a man. I think I psych myself out when it comes to women, thinking that if I walk up to them and ask to take their photo that I'm going to come off like some sort of Ted Bundy wannabe who is going to lure them to my van and kidnap them. (note: I do not own a van and I would not kidnap anyone) I guess I just need to take the risk. What's the worst that could happen? A knee to the groin? Having the police called on me? It's worth it. Right?

Bundy used a VW Bug, not a van.
