PEOPLE - Environmental Portraiture/ Images with Words

When you are taking environmental portraits of people you need to capture some of the environment in which they inhabit.Here you can see that the image is as much about the librarian as is it about the librarian. I think the image with the word service works quite well because it is stating the obvious. These images were taken using a mixed lighting setup, with daylight and flash. An umbrella was used overhead to try to cut down on reflections from his glasses.
