Devan (of Mad Cap Photography) and I spent our day in downtown Portland, looking for people willing to have their picture taken. We will be posting all of our pictures on a collaborative blog (click to view), but here are a few of my favorites from my camera.
This was a neat experience. I’m not sure when I will do it again, since it was rather exhausting, but it was a satisfying challenge – artistically and personally.
Awkward Moments
Suffice to say, the whole day was fairly awkward, but we’ll fondly remember a few experiences.
- Waking up an hour later than we anticipated.
- Getting lost before we got to our first destination.
- Mixing several exits due to GPS difficulties.
- Searching in vain for a public bathroom.
- Trying to explain exactly what we were doing… and then having to explain again because it didn’t make sense the first time.
- Hesitantly jaywalking.
