Here's a good tip, especially if you're introverted. Have business cards printed with your photograph on them indicating that you're a "photographer." I also have a separate email address on them. I travel internationally so I include "photographer" in about 8 other languages as well. It's amazing how much credibility one gets with a simple business card!
I imagine that could have the exact opposite effect with some people as a business card suggests that you print or have a bigger internet presence which some people don't like. But that's just my 10 cents
@@trustnugget280 That's not been my experience, possibly because of the "off the beaten track" places that I travel. That said, I'm willing to take my chances!
The best advice you have given me that I’ve applied is keeping my kit simple, with only having one or two lenses max. Furthermore, I’ve been taking only the x100v out to force myself to tell stories based on its fixed focal length. This alone is really improving my ability to tell stories by focusing on what’s around me. Thanks for these videos and the time you put into them :)
Regarding keeping my kit simple, I couldn't agree more. I don't want to even have to think about changing lenses, so I only take one with me - zoom or prime - and that's it. Recently I've been doing night street photography quite a bit in my city (Milan, Italy) and I have to admit that I really enjoy it. I observe a lot, take some shots, don't obsess over missed ones (which are, of course, many), and I usually go back home with quite a few photos that I can call myself proud of. I really enjoy it. Great video, as always!

You're spot on with the part about learning your camera. Also, knowing that proper setup you need for various situations in terms of exposure settings. I'm still not at that level and feel that pain in situations that need quick reflexive responses. Have a great week!
Simplify gear is so true and something I discovered when using 35mm film cameras...the 50mm rarely left its bag and the Soligor 90-230mm lived on the camera whether hiking backcountry and mountains or walking the city. The camera was always ready, plus not changing lenses kept the sensor clean. Thus was born my love of a good zoom lens.
Roman, u always have such great practical advice. I keep forgetting that i should focus on enjoying myself when i am traveling instead of "chasing" the shot. Gonna give this a try next time
good point about keeping gear simple. I'd say also keep your itinerary simple too. If you plan to see many places, you'll end up rushing through each area. Just choose a location for a day and to your 4th tip, just slow down and observe.
You really developed as a yt creator. I think this video is much better than earlier and there is lot of b roll that match the topics! Just good overall
Quality video Roman, the section about going out to enjoy the experience and creating an album rather than just gunning for that one banger, definitely going to apply that to my photography more now. And learning to "observe" or "see" in photography is such an overlooked (punintentional?) skill, quality content dude.
Completely agree, except one point. As a pro, you still need to enjoy the process. Yes, there is the pressure and duty to deliver the shots, but the artistic process of getting those shots has to be enjoyed. It is imperative as creatives that we never lose our own enjoyment of out craft. Thanks for another great vid Roman!
I went to Brixton in London today to do a bit of street photography and, even though I was being discreet, I got hassled every 15 minutes. Possibly it was because I was wrangling my phone a bit too much, but honestly (judging by what they said) I think it was more a cultural thing. Brixton probably has a history of tension with police etc and that was the vibe - that they didn't trust my intentions. In one case, I was in an unoccupied alleyway pointing my camera skyward to take a picture up the side of a tower with the sun above and a woman came down the alleyway and said "HEY. ARE YOU OK?" ... showing that there was an issue even when I was pointing it far away from people. On the plus-side, I was quickly called into a fishmongers to take some fun snaps of the staff and I've already emailed them 3 favourites :)
Normally, I'm almost put off by the ubiquitous 10-tips format, which is so worn by now and can feel a bit forced. But every single tip that Roman shares here makes a lot of sense, feels based on solid experience, and taken together they will likely benefit any people-related kind of photography, both process- and resultswise. Plus, Roman presents them in an authentic, entertaining, and tasteful way that is just fun to watch. Highly recommended.
Cheers Roman, another great video. Really like your content and appraoch to photography. So easy to get caught up in our own heads with results instead of enjoying the process. Ill add one thing ive found helpful; alongside album, having a specific theme for a certain period of time helps with focus and motivation. Last summer I did a 3 month little project about metro stations in and around Oslo which was great! The local photo store also hired me to teach a photoworkshop afterwards from the photos and videos I posted. Winner! Anyways, cheers again for super down to earth content!
one more important thing - Learn to identify the difference between scenarios which look great, when you’re in them, and those that photograph well - they are often quite different
Thank you so much😍its so helpful. I bought a xt2 and want to start with streetphotography. I love your videos. I already shot in nyc in may with a rented xt4. It Was so much fun. My shots may not be perfect but i like them🥺😍😃thx for the inspo
Couldn't agree more about the first tip, I've got a pair of Adidas samba with amazing dynamic range, just sometimes I get funny looks when I'm attaching my telephoto lens to the soles.
I think I've visited every London borough by now (20 km walks and all) and my favourite thing by far is to "get lost", set a very rough direction but otherwise just meander and wind through the streets. Getting off the main roads and streets in particular can be very interesting, for example offering vantage points to popular buildings otherwise always photographed from the same few locations. In addition there are so many surprises tucked away in a city like this. Not in too dodgy areas though haha. One of my favorite places has to be the barbican, it's like being teleported 50 years back!
Youre right… but some of us have to be at home at your family and kids. Sometimes theres no money or time to travel around the world. Sometimes you have to take photos in your garden of your kids or something like this. But honestly this can be satisfing too… with the colours from the xt4. 😄 Thanks for the video Rom, greets from Germany✌️
Some cool advices, thanks. I shoot with the 85mm even for streets photography at 90% of the time. My lens to go with, for theses long city walk. I like the idea, trying to see how I can compose a photograph that would be great with a 24-35mm. So addicted to this lens !
Great pointers Honest just go with what feels natural and understand yes the situation at hand the atmosphere that's there. Should you bring your camera out or should you just sit and enjoy the chill moment Again great tips simple break down. Hope everybody understood the simplicity of it all
I served with a LAPhot in the RN. All he used was a 50mm lens and 85mm for most things not sure if it was a conon or nikon.. Used these for most things from grip and grin shots. Or photographing girls in the street in lisboa or elsewhere. Film cameras in those days digital did not exist.
Hi Roman, I'm from Mexico, but I'm living in NYC. I love London, I was there in 2019. I want to Thank you for all your work and time, you inspire me to be better and keep going with my hobby. A big hug and one recommendation, my favorite coffee place on my visit was Formative Coffee, also a great spot for photos.
Great video. All very valuable lessons and all the truth. Went on a group shoot last weekend focusing on murals but my 28mm was not wide enough, then the light was too harsh, etc...and I was miserable. A coffee and a switch to a 50mm led me to begin to focus on parts of the murals and relax and enjoy the day. Lesson learned.
Best advice in this video is shoot what you like. It's funny... because for the most part... I am not a huge fan of shooting at sunrise and sunset... I find it pretty stressful and I think it is overdone for the most part. Instead of thinking of "good" and "bad" light... its more valuable to think "what is the light doing" - in what most people call "bad light" you can use a lot of shadows to isolate/frame subjects. And weirdly my favorite thing to do is to shoot is bad weather.... I love photos with mood - with wet weather comes great reflections, and realistically there are a lot of fair weather photographers... which means your photos look different and more interesting.
I'm here to say that snails ARE nice. On a serious note, the only point I am not fully on board with is the people interaction/people skills. I might be wrong, but I am sure that great photos can be taken while being an observer and not necessarily interact with people (even though I agree that it might become necessary in some situations)
Great video. Very relatable content. I have a couple of questions for you - 1. Do you shoot raw images or jpegs? Fuji cameras are known for their jpegs so was wondering what do you prefer. 2. Do you use view finder or live view for composing a shot? Hoping to get a response from you and really appreciate all the content on your channel! Cheers!
This is the first time seeing any of your videos and it couldn't have come at a greater time for me. Absolutely fantastic and practical tips that many other content creators of this genre miss or take as a given that you've put a voice too. I'll check out your channel now but just wanted to say thank you and we'll done. Your video editing skills are on point. Once I get my dream camera, the Fujifilm XT-4, I'll check out your link for details and functions of the camera. We'll done. Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺.
I agree! Some people may say zoom lenses are good for street photography but it could be a backfire! You would try to find the best composition cuz you know you have zoom capability. But composition isn’t essential element in street photography
Good video. For me I think the tips on observation and enjoyment are the top ones. I think we all take better photos when we are enjoying what we're shooting. Learning what people tend to do in certain spaces and situations is useful, but most of my best shots are where people have done something I wasn't expecting.
I know some of them is part of others videos you have already done, but they say you put them together. Blend them. It’s great Roman ! This one really it In my opinion. Especially the part about creating album. Keep up the wonderful work man !
Just subscribed. I’ve seen about 5 of your videos now and you give great advice. I’m an introvert too and it’s not an excuse! I just got my first Fuji (switching from Canon) and my plan is to learn it like the back of my hand. Did you know they come with manuals?! 😊
I am a hybrid, I love to walk around until I find a strong spot then I will camp the spot for shots, I always stick to a 35/50 because I know I'm shooting street. I learned sunny 16 when shooting film so I known how to adjust my settings for the lighting situation. My favorite thing is directing people where I want them to walk by how I walk towards them 😄. I have had a few situations where people freaked out but In general most people think I'm shooting something else how I act, I even had a person think I was shooting them when I wasn't. I tend to go for a cinematic style shot so I like your advice on a catalogue because it's very similar to film making.
Nice Video And Awesome Advice... I Shoot With The Sony a7riv with the 85mm FE 1.8 And With The Sony a7iv With the FE 24-70mm F4 And You Are Right About A Good Pair Of Sneakers lol I Sure Do Walk A Lot..
Starting to get addicted to your videos. How can one make a living from photography? I'd love to know the process. Even just something as a side hustle
Tips about keeping things simple: make a short custom menu with just the settings you use the most, so you don't have to fiddle through long menus to find them :)
Absolutely fantastic video Roman, you help me so much, you give me confidence to try different things when out and about with my camera. I value your knowledge and experience very much huge thanks :)
Thank you for these solid tips. Well done! On another subject, did you see that Capture One has a working iPad version in the hopper? From what I was saw, it looks promising with quite a bit better UI than the desktop version as well. Here's hoping!
I think a lot of people misunderstand "introvert" to mean "shy" or something similar. Introverted people can be very outgoing and social, but it's just draining and they need time alone to "recharge." I'm an introvert, but can be surprisingly outgoing. I'm just not that outgoing for very long, and definitely don't feel rejuvenated after social events.
This might be a bit controversial but depending on who you are, if you’re going on vacation (especially with friends or family), consider only taking your iPhone and leaving your fancy camera at home. I tend to be quite obsessive when my brain is in street photography mode, constantly scanning for opportunities and people. Being in this frame of mind makes it very hard to be in the moment and enjoy my vacation properly. If you have a modern iPhone there is no risk your mess that magic shot if you get lucky
When people ask me what's the best book to start learning photography: - read your camera user manual and take notes. - what? I never read a manual! - then just buy a disposable film camera, not a fancy one. Knowing your gear and tools is a great way to learn anything in any craft. Gear doesn't matter but knowing how it works makes things way easier. The observational skill is an important one, that's true. Sometimes it's like a "6th sense" because your brain analyzes your surroundings before you're even conscious of it. Me for exemple I'm only good at spotting when sh*t's gonna hit the fan 😂 for real. Friends and family always tell me - every time something bad happens! - nah it's just that I see it coming before you do cause you're not paying attention 😂 The worse time is when I felt something is going wrong in a train station. I reach for my camera and went towards "the bad smell". 5 seconds later a shooting between cops and a thug with a weapon, I was 5m away. Trust your guts 😂
@@motorcyclesbatroun3 Pentax, Fuji's (all of mine for almost a decade), Nikon, had and have them with printed manuals. Pretty sure all manufacturers have pdf manuals, I prefer those to be honest so I can copy paste in notes.

I think I've visited every London borough by now (20 km walks and all) and my favourite thing by far is to "get lost", set a very rough direction but otherwise just meander and wind through the streets.
Getting off the main roads and streets in particular can be very interesting, for example offering vantage points to popular buildings otherwise always photographed from the same few locations.
In addition there are so many surprises tucked away in a city like this.
Not in too dodgy areas though haha.

I tend to be quite obsessive when my brain is in street photography mode, constantly scanning for opportunities and people. Being in this frame of mind makes it very hard to be in the moment and enjoy my vacation properly. If you have a modern iPhone there is no risk your mess that magic shot if you get lucky
great advice as always! really love your content
When people ask me what's the best book to start learning photography:
- read your camera user manual and take notes.
- what? I never read a manual!
- then just buy a disposable film camera, not a fancy one. Knowing your gear and tools is a great way to learn anything in any craft. Gear doesn't matter but knowing how it works makes things way easier.
The observational skill is an important one, that's true. Sometimes it's like a "6th sense" because your brain analyzes your surroundings before you're even conscious of it.
Me for exemple I'm only good at spotting when sh*t's gonna hit the fan 😂 for real. Friends and family always tell me
- every time something bad happens!
- nah it's just that I see it coming before you do cause you're not paying attention 😂
The worse time is when I felt something is going wrong in a train station. I reach for my camera and went towards "the bad smell".
5 seconds later a shooting between cops and a thug with a weapon, I was 5m away.
Trust your guts 😂
Unless you buy a Sony then it doesn’t come with a manual
@@motorcyclesbatroun3 Pentax, Fuji's (all of mine for almost a decade), Nikon, had and have them with printed manuals. Pretty sure all manufacturers have pdf manuals, I prefer those to be honest so I can copy paste in notes.
Great Video. Thanks
