This lady who lives in Thanedhar is great fun to photograph, but exasperating at the same time. She has a crazy personality and runs around saying “Are you ready?!!!” meaning ‘Please take my photograph” (as she doesn’t speak much English). She finds it impossible to keep still and then as soon as I’ve clicked the shutter she runs towards me to look at the picture, giving me no time to check it myself and amend the settings.

But I don’t mind the frustrations because she’s a pretty special woman, so full of life! And who can refuse photographing someone with such a beautiful smile, and such an adorable daughter.
