Hostess

Portraiture is my favourite subject and today I got this shot down at the Showzam Festival.
I try to take six or seven shots of the same person in a short burst as I am able to get the best expression from at least one.
I always try to get a background that compliments the subject and their clothing. Here I only had a few seconds to get the shot so I was lucky.
Its sometimes nice to look around before you approach a person to take their portrait to find a suitable background and guide them to it for the shot. Most people are happy to do so, so don't be afraid to ask is my tip!
