      @@cyano3d i feel the same, we can definitely be more positive than we are though, but its a struggle out there, i made my first video recently and i couldn't even bring myself to do voice over or be on camera im so in my head and awkward shy but one step at a time maybe i'll be as outward showing as this girl one day, lets be real same thing with men crying its looked down upon it seems, hell i've never seen my dad cry, but i think that vibe is slowly changing in the real work, but it does is remind me of the quote "Most men lead lives of quiet desperation" i feel that for sure!

    This is such a different way of approaching street and it definitely shows in her portfolio. This is evidence that no RUclips video, course, influencer, or class, can really change who you are. You're born with it and nothing can change that, I've thought about this recently how there's a particular way I approach street that no matter really what I do I fall back into shooting that way. You may be able to improve or add things but at the end of the day there's a skeleton you start with and that's just the way it is. She approaches street like Laura Fuchs and nobody else and I tremendously respect and admire that.

I’m usually walking the streets with a smile on my face and often have people coming up to me talking and asking me for taking their pictures. And I’m a tall 59 year old man.

    He's not mentioned enough on RUclips photography videos.
    Awesome she got to meet him. He's one of my favorites too, his documentaries are amazing.
    That's actually who I thought of watching her in the video.
    She has a great personality and smiles with and for people.

    This was probably the most motivating walkie talkie yet. Although I personally am more of a "traditional" street photographer I always wanted to interact with strangers to get a nice portrait. The way Laura interacts with the people is just amazing.
    She has such a positive aura and is so smooth in her approach.
    I will take that from this video and try implementing it on my next walk.
    Thanks Paulie and Laura
