Capturing people in their "natural habitat" or in a place where they regularly perform an activity seems like an easy task. What often complicates the matter is introducing a camera to someone else's sacred space. Getting the subject to ignore its presence is the real challenge. My friend Michelle is a fellow photographer, and even after I explained to her what I needed, she still had trouble relaxing when the lens cap came off. I tried having her move around on the stage, and once I found the perfectly lit spot, I took a lot of photos. With the ISO on the highest setting and a very slow shudder speed, I managed to capture Michelle in a light which highlighted her complexion. The stage light was soft and white which helped to combat any tungsten light.
