At first I tried to get everyone to look at the camera which seems the natural thing to do when trying to take a photograph but I am coming across more and more traditional people that have migrated from villages in Pakistan and Bangladesh that although comfortable whilst talking still have a traditional attitude about how their public image should look - this being one of respect by women not looking directly at a camera. I therefore still went ahead and took the photo leaving Saima comfortable with the image that she wanted. I used this image as one of my final images as it reflects a cultural attitude.
