a real one, a DSLR works great if you want to meet girls at lunch hour or even when walking...
If you don't mind I'll share some of the fun stories I had and I hoped it'll inspire a few of you...
I was going out to take photos when I saw this cute girl (19) 8.5 who was eating her lunch, she had a fun vibe.
I say "Hi do you mind If I take your picture"
she replies "it's not my day you know"
I reply "so should I come back tomorrow same place same time?, don't worry with a little photoshop it should be alright"...
I snap 2-3 photos and sit on the bench with her, show her the photos and started chatting... then a bee comes and she tries to hit it with her purse.
I tell her "hey you're really jumpy, are you sure you're not a psycho?". Then I ask for her email to send her the photos... and because I find her weird (I also took her hand because she had written on the palm of her hand, which is still weird), I demanded her phone no so I know it's her who's stalking me in the middle of the night. It took me less than 5 min to get that number.

(for the trick to work, you have to look pro when taking the photos though)

LOL nice one. What DSLR do you have? 5DMKII and 1DMKII for me so I can look as pro as I want... =)

I usually don't ask strangers for ther photo taken since I think it's a bit "ahhh scary mr photography man!" They kinda got this image of photographers here.. brr..

Asking her to help with a picture where she ain't on could help a bit more maybe. Then do a bit of game and build comfort, then ask for her pic and of course her nr/mail to send it to.

But you got more idea's? Let's share them since a good DSLR is a GREAAATTT peacocking item.. :)




Idea's
What about... you say this to a nice nice girl:

"Hey got a min? You're into photography?"

This can go 2 ways:
- Yes. -> Well nuff to talk about obviously.

- No. -> Here we go...!

"Ah that's great! I'm doing some assignment that me and some fella photographers came up with. Like a weekly challenge. Anyway we have to ask strangers 2-3 subjects THEY think is interesting to capture on the street...capture it and ask if I did it the way they imagined. Wanna give it a go?"

If she has like a min she will look around, walk a bit maybe with you, talk, game, do a routine etc....


Damn now I can't wait to try this one, sounds like fun if it works out. =) Thoughts?

I have a Nikon D300 and an external flash.

as for your opener, it works I'm pretty sure (however, starting with a no is not that good) ... but it's not conveying more than a "hi how are you? having a nice day?" (this is usually hi, yes, yes... and once you get 2-3 yes to your questions it's easier to start chatting).

Try something like "do you think taking a photo of this flower would make a good photograph"... then ask her how she feels when she sees or smells flowers... if you are into nlp, it could be a good way in (just guessing there).

I approached close to 300 people in the streets so I have more than a few openers (not for pua, it was for building a portrait portfolio and get a LOT of experience fast) and never got any problems with anyone (it also works if a bf gets there, look at him in the eye and just tell him you take portraits). The key is confidence and looking straight in the eyes (think as a professionnal).

An evening it was raining a little and some people were under umbrellas... I stopped a 2-set and told them I HAD TO photograph people with umbrellas, they were so surprised... or I once walked to two girls in a park and told them I had to photograph people orienting one way.

A last one... Walk up to a girl, look at her straight in the eye, look around her face and tell her... "you're all right, I could photograph you, there is not a lot of photoshop to do after". My guess it works best on 8-10s.

When photographing, don't show them right away the photo, run with the camera, gasp or do a "huh huh, you can do better than that come one".

Also, I NEVER tell them they are beautiful... walking to them with a camera is already a statement by itself.

Sadly this will never work in N. Korea :cry:

For the holidays a friend of mine had luck with something similar. He walked up to an HB8 in the market. He pulled his mobile out and asked if he could take a pic with her. She asked why and he says "I wanna show santa what I want for xmas"
