We all smile in the same language.
Following Some People I Shot, this is the sequel. As I was compiling the photos I realised how many they are hidden between tens of Gigabytes of material. Some were captured throughout the last years after leaving Egypt to Canada then the U.S, while others go back to much earlier times when I was still getting into the photography world. One of which is the featured photo of photogenic late-teenage Yasmina — taken on the Northern Coast of Egypt in 1998 using a telephoto lens on a 1975 Minolta kindly given to me by my father.
I was also reminded by something I love about taking photos of people, which is finding elaborate ways to make them loosen up and smile naturally in front of the lens, especially strangers. A quick-witted joke or a simple silly face as I click usually do the trick. Enjoy.
Once done, check the threequel as well, Some More People I Shot.
