Your portraits are so good - always really natural. There's none of that "omg he's got a camera" that seems so tough to avoid in close up shots.

Are you using a zoom lense from across the room, or a camera with an LCD on the top so you can look like you're changing its settings when you're actually taking a picture?? How do you get these guys to be so un-conscious of the camera?

Thanks!

I'm using a 35mm lens (sometimes at 50mm) so I'm pretty close to my subjects. The Leica is smaller than a big SLR camera, but I still have to look through it and it not really "compact".

I think it's just that I always have my camera out and I keep taking lots of pictures until people get sick of worrying about my camera.
