"Do you mind if I steal your model for a few minutes?”


Maria was walking through town with a couple of other people when I spotted her. When I asked for her portrait, she looked at the people she was with, almost as a prompt for them to say something. It turned out that they were having a photography shoot themselves and explained that Maria was the model. I asked if I could borrow her for a while to take some snaps and they kindly agreed.

I took her aside and grabbed some quick head shots before returning her. I didn’t want to get into a long conversation with her knowing the others were waiting so I let her get back to her modelling job.

So, without anything to reveal about her, here is the Mysterious Maria...
