Working on it

Karen mapped out some locations for me to place shoes in pictures. I took some pictures. A cute little boy who spoke zero English interacted with my dog and me. He was tempted to play with the shoes except that clearly I was doing something with the shoes so he touched one and then put it back. I briefly put the shoe on his scooter, long enough to get this shot. His grandmother paid enough attention to make sure nothing untoward was happening but for all I know she speaks no English either. 

I scoped out the area near where the woman who will let me take her portrait lives. Nothing really popped out as a background. I'm watching a class on flash photography if we need to be indoors and I'll watch other classes on portrait photography. One way or another it will be educational and we'll make it fun.
