Captured at a wedding in California, this intriguing and stylised character became a focal point for me.
The craft of the impromptu portrait is one of stealth, anticipation, position, and a preparedness to react quickly. I observe but never stare at my intended subject. They must not be aware of my intention or, ideally, even my presence.
With my subject in a suitably well-lit position and a composition aligned. My exposure and focus are ready. Capture follows at a timely moment.
Bjorn.
