I rarely take people photos.  Not that I don't like to, but rather I find I don't have the opportunity most often.  I think some of the reason for that is that I often photograph alone and am not involved in many circumstances where there are interesting people shots to be had, other than the usual family and friends and the normal candids that come as part of those situations.

I need to make a more concerted effort to look for "people" shots and then break out of my shell a bit to find ways to approach people in interesting settings and ask for permission to take their photo.

Vietnamese Family at Japanese Gardens

I met this family at the Japanese Gardens in Fort Worth and commented to the mother about how much I liked their clothes. She told me that they were formerly from Vietnam and this was their traditional dress. 

She was kind enough to allow me to take a photo of her mother, child and herself, while her husband, father and another child were farther up the walk.
