Luke, Esai and Rosemary

I saw this wonderful family in the Detroit Institute of Arts Cafe today and, as has become my habit, went up and asked if I could take their picture. When I do this I always promise to email them a copy. Luke and Rosemary were most gracious in allowing me to take several shots and to post them online if I wanted. Folks usually say yes when I ask. I think it helps that I use a professional-looking camera so they know I'm serious. The business card helps too. All I had to get over was my shyness, but the more I approach strangers in this way, the more comfortable with it I become. As we all know, the worst they can do is say no.
