    Informal Candid Portrait Fun

    This is a little like the capture a stranger thread with a couple of exception. First doesn't matter if you know the subject or not and second we want more of a head torso type photo. No elaborate lighting, if you pop a little flash no problem just not a big portrait lighting setup. Lets have a little fun with candid portraits. I'm starting it off with some strangers I meet yesterday at a local festival. Have fun and feel free to post as many as your want.

    I love the Mom shot Ali. It is so real! That is what a candid portrait is all about. Nice going.
