I walked into Vito’s, on a whim, to introduce myself and ask about the possibility if taking some photos of the place. It was such an amazing sight to behold, barbershop owner - Mac as he later introduced himself - was sat alone in the salon, music full blast, jamming away to a song in the stereo. Completely lost in his own rock & roll world. I felt rude for interrupting, but at the same time - I had an urge to take his photo. So i waited politely, and as he looked up I introduced myself and explained who I am and what I wanted to do. Armed with only my iPhone 3GS I decided that it was stupid to waste this opportune moment and ask Mac if I could take a few photos? A casual, laid-back but friendly yes and away I went. #iphoneography #photography #eyeem #Leicester #hairsalon #barbershop #documentary #portrait #guitar #music
