Following the graduation cerremony, many people were using the university's botanic gardens for photo ops, including this woman.
Since everyone is friendly here, I suggested to her photographer where she should stand, and where he should be, in order to get a similar shot Later, I actually saw some of his results on an FB page for the university.
I guess the most important things to keep in mind for street photos is to always have a camera, and watch for oppotrtunities. I happened upon a very creative engagement ceremony recently. The prospective groom had arranged for his Fiancee and friend to go on a scavenger hunt, finding several balloons. He also had a few balloons

Fortunately, she accepted
I suggested the couple and friends pose with the balloons afterward
How many of you have interacted with strangers taking selfies or other photos in order to get a more creative composition?
