Taking photos is usually a solo activity for me. It's difficult to walk around and take pictures when you are talking to your friends or doing some other thing. I just need to feel free and let people catch my attention... That's why sometimes it is difficult to take photos while I'm travelling.
I'm obviously attracted to these different outfits and the way people mix things, but the need to enjoy and see the city just makes it more difficult to stop every now and then to photograph someone. Not to mention I don't want to be the one who drags everyone down.
In my last trip, I noticed Maaike after leaving the Amsterdam Museum. Her easiness just caught my attention. I had not photographed anyone in Amsterdam to this moment and, as we were running to the next museum, I was just going to let it go. Again. Fortunately, my good friend Diogo just looked at me and unexpectedly said: "She looks so stylish!". That was all I needed to hear to approach Maaike and ask if I could take her picture.
