How To Practice Street Photography

- Today we're just doing some street photography practice! I pretty much always have my camera with me and always practice the art of observation. Everywhere you go, you can try to train your eye just by watching the ways people interact so that you'll always be ready when you're out taking photos.

Always tell myself im going to get into street as its what got me into photography, but I just can't get over the "getting caught" feeling and how I would respond.
I highly recommend watching Trevor Wisecup! He handles confrontation very very well when he's in New York! I definitely learned a lot from watching his videos/interviews
That's a valid concern but I find confrontation to be extreme and rare cases. I've only been confronted twice: once by a security guard who asked me to delete his photo, and another time by an elderly husband. Of course, even just capturing irritated looks can be off-putting.
There are several strategies, some more some less surreptitious, to overcome this fear: pretending to be checking (on the screen) the result of a shot you just 'took' (through the viewfinder) of another subject entirely; festivals and other open-air events where people don't mind being seen/ending up in the news; offering to be the 'official photographer' at private venues and events; ultimately, asking for permission/saying you're trying out your camera/showing your portfolio; etc. It boils down to your personality and desire to interact with your subjects or not.
Totally agree with you, Elisha!
I typically say that I’m just practicing with my camera and 97% of the time there are no follow-up questions
👌 👌 👌 📸 📸 ❤️
Man u said it yes.. pictures beyond pictures in my archives 😅and I don't share much ..so are my favs and well some just meh 😑...28mm in Japan is really the deal.i used 35mm at the moment.nice collection and how u say practice...🎉ps why the guy trolling on your guitars smh it's your life
My Archives are archived for a reason 😂 can’t imagine my clients would want to see how many mistakes I used to make hahaha!
28 is great for busy places but I really love 35 for more chill shooting, both awesome focal lengths!
The Japanese seem so unconcerned with someone taking photos around them. In my country you'd get at least noticed even if shooting only with a phone.
Japanese culture, from what I’ve learned by living here, is *generally* very inward. so people aren’t as concerned with what other people are doing unless it causes inconveniences or problems. I’ve definitely had people talk to me when I’m out photographing, but it’s more out of curiosity than hostility. It’s a great place to start practicing street photography!
Why do you tubers always choose the same crappy background music, especially the songs in which someone is hitting a metal garbage can led every three seconds? Anyway thanks for the Tokyo walk. Cheers!
I think the lo-fi music choice for photographer is so common because it’s very non-distracting from the point of the videos 🤷♂️ I can try using other music but I don’t know if a photo walk pairs well with hard metal or bluegrass music 😂
Thanks for watching!!
Stopped after a few seconds. Why on earth do SO many photographers have guitars, keyboards and the like in the background? What are you trying to prove?
If a piece of background set is enough to make you stop the video and leave a negative comment, photographers with other hobbies aren't the problem 😀
I'd rather see a guitar in the background than a collection of Leicas. Says something about the art in his approach, as does the analogy with sketching.
you should ask yourself why such a random thing is triggering you in such a way that you become so emotional about it.
@@eddflen1661 just make sure to bring a guitar with on any street shoot to really piss off people 😄
Creative people are creative, what’s hard to understand? I play guitar and do photography too. What are YOU trying to prove?
