Been spending a lot of time on here!
I'm still not really sure what the difference is. What would the photo you want to take look like? What would the photo you think they want look like?
This is exactly my point. What should any portrait look like? It depends on the subject.
I think the previous posts about them not responding because they thought you were going to be difficult are probably correct. Why wouldn't they want them shown as individuals? If I were running a shelter and wanted photos for promotion and to get donations, then shots that made them look like individuals and real people are exactly what I would want.
Then what's the problem?
It's almost like you have something against the shelter and are offended they don't want your help at the same time.
If I could help the homeless in the community, my views on the shelter itself is of no consequence. I'm not sure where you even got that one aside from what I have gathered from some of the homeless I've spoken to in the community.
Also, there's a good chance they are busy and just haven't responded yet.
Yes, there is.
