Such a contagious smile! Each visit I get an update on what's happening in the kitchen, "He's baking up tomorrow's golden peach bagels," and what's being offered on the shelves.

Her smile and friendly nature encourage me to purchase a few extras.

Thanks for stopping long enough for me to get this. Hope you didn't get in trouble with your boss.

I had to fiddle about with camera settings; find an angle that would allow me to fit both the umbrella and my subject in the frame; and get enough light on his face.

Very patient subject.
