Fantastic advice, sir! Your best point was to always shoot for yourself. Once I did that I released all the pressure and indecisiveness and just enjoyed the process.
As a fledgling street photographer, I find your videos to be a valuable resource. I will also admit that I absolutely love the images that you include as examples, they are beautiful.
One hundred percent agreed! The body language of a "subject to be" is very important, also having a bit of fear will keep you alert in the street and don't forget to smile, smile makes everybody at ease, well, almost everybody!🍻
I've watched these kind of videos years back already and it's nice to see that some of the aspects you mentioned have greatly improved since then for me. Now I'm much more at ease, relaxed and can concentrate on the scene, rather than my own thoughts, fears and doubts. Great videos as always. Cheers!
Some of the best advice I’ve heard on RUclips. Honest and True. One thing I’ve learned in 45 years of photography learning the law is first and foremost. For example in France, the person photographed owns that photo and not the photographer.
LOL. This is total BS. The photographer will own the copyright in any country that is a signatory to the Berne Convention. France isn’t making up its own copyright rules. You may be confusing the fact that in France you require permission from the subject to publish the photo“ unless the photo contributes to the exchange of ideas and opinions deemed indispensable to a democratic society.” In practice it means not a lot unless you live in France; good luck with a lawsuit against a foreigner publishing a photo for non-commercial purposes. 🙄
You’re thanking the poster for making up a non-existent, bizzare rule that if you had even the slightest understanding of copyright or copyright related treaties you would know it to be complete nonsense.
Same. Small body, small prime. Sometimes, I'll toss another prime in the pocket if I'm feeling frisky. But always a vastly different focal length so intention stays clear.
Nice point.. since I left photojournalism I only shoot pictures for myself.. Yes I do post them on FB & Instagram... but I don't care at all about likes and followers, it's all far too superficial. In fact Instagram is a great archiving method so I can easily find my shots on my hard drives.. Then I make photo books, and get one copy for me.. If others want them I will get further copies made, but I do it all for myself. I spent 20 years, shooting what others wanted, be it, a newspaper or an assignment I was given as an agency snapper... None were my subjects... Now I can choose what I shoot.. So yes great observation we should all be shooting for ourselves.
I have just started building up my street photography skills. Years ago, I spent most of my photography time photographing architecture and doing abstracts and minimalist street scenes. I have some personal qualms about photographing people's faces up close, I recognize that we don't have a reasonable expectation of privacy on public streets to use the legal phrase, but I'm super cautious photographing strangers. I'm getting better at it, however. One of my goals is to use human subjects within the frame as compositional elements, and that focus has been very helpful to me. I'm just not a confrontational person, and to be honest, I had agoraphobia for 2 years and I'm just not looking for confrontation with strangers. I think our personal lives and our personalities factor into how far we can go with photographing strangers' faces.
I use either a 28mm or 40mm on a full frame and shoot between f/5.6 and f/8 and use a zone focus. Some people use aperture priority mode but I shoot in manual mode but use auto ISO. Occasionally I'll open the aperture for a shallow depth of field and then focus where I need to and wait for someone to step into that spot but usually I focus on the ground on a spot in front of me that will have most everything in focus. That way the only thing I have to worry about is taking the photo. A lot of times I have my camera on a neck strap hanging down to my chest. I don't even raise the camera up to my eye.
Sage advice. I would say that reading people is one of the hardest things to do. Why? Because we often bring our preconceptions with us when we observe someone, even if we’re unaware of it. The clothes they wear, their haircut, they have a certain type of dog etc… that can be a barrier to taking photographs if you’re just starting out, it’s a barrier we create unconsciously.
So concise, insightful and helpful. Thank you. I recently had my Leice stolen due to not reading the scene correctly. Until the day comes when I can afford my next camera, I will practice observation without one and practice learning how to blend into my surroudings whilst also being sympatico with them. Finding that balance is something I have always struggled with. From my younger days of shying away due to social anxiety and discovering photography as a medium to reintegrate myself with the outside world, I have at times, with a dash of dutch courage, gone full 180 and become like a bull in a china shop, full Gilden Mode. Neither approach has proven advantageous for my street photography. Thank you for your genuine words of wisdom. I appreciate your and your partner's work, as well as your choice of Locations. Blackpool is great, Brighton of course and London goes without saying. But props for Blackpool, fascinating little town with a lot of character and a big heart. Thank you for your work and your representation. All the best to you both. Thank you
Quality advice, I’m relatively new to street photography and do have similar fears of being to noticed, doesn’t help at the minute as I’m using walking still whilst waiting on a hip replacement. I tend to find a good spot I can wait or sit and let subjects enter the scene 👍🏻
The late, great photographer Grace Robertson, once told me that a good photojournalist should never take their camera out immediately, but instead, like you point out in this video, walk around for a while and observe and take in what you will bring your camera out for later on. Good channel, advice and video. Super images too!
Brilliant video, and actually with useful advice and tips! Thank you for keeping hammering home the importance of taking photos for ourselves rather than the social media brigade!
Cracking presentation as always Geoff I’m in awe of your abilities as a not only a fine photographer but as an educator keep ‘em coming mate I’ll keep tuning in Cheers
Useful & informative, as always. Looking at previous comments, it appears as though there is great demand for a video just on the law as it affects street photography!
A video dedicated to what a street photographer can and cannot legally do/(photograph) would be very well received. There are not many such videos out there.
It took me almost a decade for me to feel comfortable changing up the default menus or button assignments on my cameras. Tbh i only really got my A and B cams matched up 2 or 3 weeks ago. (I made my fx3 and a7cii behave the same when shooting photos modes) up till then i wanted to get the muscle memory down before rearranging the furnature. Glad i got over it and wish i had figured this out sooner.
@@WalkLikeAlice Clear, you should know ur gear, but not all gear works the same. If you make a shot from the hip, with a 50/1.8 open, you need a good AF which in AF-C mode tracks a person, to get a sharp face, or eye shot. This most Fujis, or Leicas cannot.
Thanks for a very informative video. I'm new to your channel (and still playing catch up!). Have you done a lesson on how to deal with confrontation in street photography? Personally, I avoid taking pictures of children because I feel it's a potential minefield of trouble. You have quite a few excellent shots of kids, did you ask permission from the adults with them? Have you ever been approached after taking such pictures? Thanks for your time ☺
We haven’t done a specific video on confrontation as it’s not something we’ve really experienced. If your technique is good, you don’t draw attention to yourself, and you read the situation in front of you properly, you shouldn’t find yourself in a confrontational position. We certainly don’t ask for permission in a public place and we’ve never been approached after taking photos.
Thank you very much for your content,I really love your channel. I have a question about street photography. If I take a photo of a stranger without asking permission and I post it on instagram is legal? If I take a photo and I dont have the opportunity later to ask if it is ok to public the photo is a problem? Thank you eventually for your answer..this is a very big problem for me because I want to create a portfolio but I dont know if I can because of permission/privacy.
You would have to find out what the law is in your country. If you go from your country to another to take photos, then the law there will apply. There are always grey areas because of the need for photojournalism and tourism. Gianni Berengo Gardin doesn’t seem to have any issues with shooting and publishing on the street in Italy.
I know that you mention on the video this topic but,for example, in Italy I can shoot photo without consent but I have to ask to the people later if I can post on social media etc.. If I cant talk with the person or if I shot from the hip and then i continue walking how can I ask permission? Sorry for my question
I would not care too much about this, do not overthink it. What is the worst thing that can happen? Probably that you publish this picture on your instagram or website, and the person you portrayed discovers that. 9 out of 10 people won't even mind. They might even feel flattered and ask you for a copy. The 10th person might object and send you a message. In that case you take the photo down. You won't get sued or anything, unless your photo is extremely damaging to the person in question, for example when he or she is drunk and lying on the pavement. In that case you probably should not have taken or published the photo at all.
In Germany especially these days, after pandemic and also in times where everyone is using a smartphone; peoples react really strange and aggressive even when I use the small Fuji and the 23mm f2 which is a small 35mm. Also many people told me that I'm not allowed to do that which simply isn't true.
It‘s true. There are consent requirements in place, which nobody really understands, so in order to be safe, you better not shoot people (no pun, hehe, but why not). Also, if you ask 10 lawyers on this, you get 12 opinions. Pretty sad situation.
when I photograph people in the street with my M6, 28mm and real film, I try to give the impression that I am concentrating on something nearby, so that the people being photographed don't notice that they are in the photo. But I also openly include people in my photography, depending on the situation, make contact, smile or speak to and with them. I often stay in a place that has a good background and capture people who then move into it. Since I already own the place, people don't seem to have a problem with it when they come into my photo. if I find myself in a location where I think getting close is too risky then I switch to the 50mm or 90mm. With the 90mm I can really include people from a distance in my motif without them being recognized.
I used to walk around with my Fujifilm x-t3 and one lens 23mm f2 but I recently bought the x100vi so i can be even more minimal. As a rule i won't photograph the homeless or someone on drugs who may have mental health issues, great channel 👍
Christ ... another mastibator comment from a billy no-mates. Didn't you used to play football for Brighton? I wondered where you'd ended up Gary. I thought you'd have more than 18 subs by now. Oh ... you're harry stevens. Not Garry. Sorry forgive me Harry.
Fred Herzog is reported to have shot from the hip. Alan Schaller also shoots from the hip on occasion as per a tutorial on his channel. It provides a unique perspective which you may not see unless you either bend down, look completely awkward (and bruise the scene) or you are only 3ft tall!
Not wanting to pour cold water on your video but your examples of street photography are mostly random people walking down the street and not all that interesting. I'm not seeing any art or real story here. is this your vision of street photography or am I missing the point?
Another billy no mates commenting. The irony is anybody who could take even a half decent photograph would never ever leave such a comment. Anybody with an ounce of creative talent wouldn’t comment in such a way. Listen mate it’s not the internet’s fault you was bullied at school. Don’t take it out on people who are working hard and creating just because you haven’t the talent to do it.
In the 20 years I’ve been shooting street I think this channel offers one of the very best advice on this genre I’ve seen so far! Subscribed.

Gotta mention the smile! A genuine smile is one of the best weapons we have. Well, most of us. My smile sends them running 🥳

This is gold. The thing about the camera getting in the way. Respect!
