This was taken at his work in the middle of the afternoon in Phoenix (ie: 115 degrees!). He's a detailer for a dealership. Fully legal and working hard to support his family. I love the debth of the lines on his face, yet there is such softness just below the surface.

Like the lighting a lot.

More sharpness and more visible eyes (a little lighter maybe) would help this picture.

Sam looks as though he would make a good model, and you have obviously made him feel at ease. For the next time, pay greater attention to what is behind your subject - sadly, those lights really are a great distraction.
