Ariel was another one of the teenagers working at the exhibit. She agreed to have her photo taken but was very uncomfortable, almost scowling at me through the lens. I tried telling her that she was such a gorgeous girl but she was having none of it. Her attitude loudly said, "look lady, take your picture quick and go." Enter Giorgio who in passing noticed the scene. He loudly agreed with me and began extolling on the finer points of her beauty. She should model was his considered opinion, complimenting and teasing her at the same time. FINALLY she started laughing. I noticed her habit of putting her hand  shyly to her face whenever Giorgio would say something outrageous about her beauty so I enlisted his help. " Stand behind me and make her laugh" I ordered. He did. I got the shot:-)
