You're on to something here. Photographers do invade a person's privacy, so it's imperative to ask permission. The challenge then becomes capturing spontaneity when the subject becomes self-aware. Building trust as you say works!

Love the pics!

Beautiful photos! Great story!

Photographing people, strangers has always been my weak side as an amateur photographer, as I have found that they very often don't want it or feel suspicious about it. At least in the corner of the world where I live. In other parts of the globe, people have usually been more happy about it.

You have the courage, as you say, and some great skills that can make it happen in a good way.
