An introduction to Street Photography

Send us a text

Have you ever tried street photography?

If you haven't, but you're thinking about it, now is a good time to start.

The primary reason for this is the frequent use of smartphones in the street. I'm sure you've had to avoid a few "phone zombies" in your time, and this makes it very easy to discretely take street photographs. People will just assume that you're on your phone.

So what do you need to think about before you get started? You're probably already carrying the ideal camera, in your phone. And that allows you to blend into the general street traffic. But there are a few other things:

• What should you definitely avoid?
• What's the best way to approach someone if you'd like to photograph them?
• Which composition rules apply?
• How should I time my shot?
• What makes a good street photograph?

I've made a few suggestions. See what you think of them!
