I've looked at this image a few times now and one thing stands out for me. The expression on the guys face. He's trying really hard to pose and get the right look. I don't imagine this man has had many portraits done in his lifetime but for some reason at this point in his life he wanted one done and came to Andy. He was so keen to get the shot done he was willing to pay £350 and was pleased with the result. A very small amount when you think of the pleasure this guy got from seeing a portrait of himself he liked and will treasure. I hate photographs of myself so when I actually come across one I do like it's a big deal for me and I imagine it was the same for this guy. He wasn't smiling in the portrait but I bet he was when he saw the result. So job very well done Andy
