Sometimes I have them put their names in my pad then I write them myself under it and ask for spelling as you can rarely read peoples writing. Having done that I say "thank you". They get quite exited about the whole prospect of their pic and name in the paper. Not the opposite. Once in a blue moon people don't give me their name and then their pic does not run as none of the papers I've worked for is going to run a nameless pic. A guys out with another guys wife maybe.. There is something soothing and ego boosting apparently about writing your name in a pad of a photographer who just took your picture to put in the paper. It makes it less surreptitious perhaps. Your not grabbing a pic and running with it.
