I had the pleasure of spending the last five days around the sea. My wife is from the seaside town of Burgas, Black Sea. We went to see her mother. The plan was to rest the whole time, or rather my camera, but apparently I can't live without taking pictures...

After two days of eating, sweet stories and family walks, I couldn't take it anymore, I took the camera and went to the beach. I had no specific idea. Since I didn't see anything interesting I decided to run the experiment plan again. I set myself a fictional task related to fashion. I do this quite often because before photography I was very shy to talk to strangers. The mission is simple: I look around for an appropriately dressed character to whom I offer a few free photos.

I was lucky that day! I walked, looking at the passers-by around the sea garden. I was looking for a stylishly dressed girl appropriately dressed for beach photos outside of the summer season. Yes, it has been raining in Bulgaria for days and it is still cold.
The girl you see was drinking coffee alone listening to music. She was sitting on a bench facing the sea, her foot ticking nervously. I got closer. I gestured for him to take off the headphones, then introduced myself. I asked the question, watching with interest as the serious expression turned into a broad smile of agreement... As we walked to the sand I tried to be as funny as possible to relax her as much as possible. I really liked her styling!

The advice I can give in such situations is don't pretend to be smart. Be yourself by finding random people you want to be your models! You have to infect them with ideas for beautiful pictures.

THANKS FOR SHARING THIS STORY!

I took the shots with a Canon EOS RP / 85 mm lens

FREEDOM IS ACTION AND A WAY OF THINKING…
