I've always loved photography and believe it too be another form of expressive artform just like music, a painting, a sculpture etc It's another way to communicate with the world in our own point of view. Love your channel and i find it refreshing and knowledge packed as opposed to the self aggrandizing of oneself with their latest gizmos and gadgets that has sadly inundate RUclips of late. Thank you for making your videos. I'm learning tonnes..... From Malaysia...
Your videos are most helpful to me - thank you. But, being new to street photography, how do I avoid the clichés in this genre? Or, perhaps it doesn’t matter if I like the photo.
@@rupertvandervell OK, thank you. I just wondered if shooting in colour made it more difficult to envisage the effect, for instance, of the light and shadows and so on. Cheers.
@@M123OCT For me, yes. A single colour tone out of place can distract enough to spoil the mood and lessen the impact of the image. It's difficult to choose the colours in your street scenes, by and large you have to go with what's present.
@@M123OCT For me, no. Colour is a distraction. I shoot colour, and I have enough experience and practice to have a good idea of what I can get, and if I don't know, I shoot anyway.
3:07 I had the same thought! People watching is so fascinating and brings to mind so many possibilities in creating narratives. Love this tutorial and demo. Beautiful work and articulated in a gentle and passionate way.
Finding this channel is like finding oasis among hundreds of so called street photographer nowadays (which most of them only shot what happened on the street rather than making art out of it).
Rupert, I just stumbled upon your channel. Great work indeed. It's refreshing to watch an experienced street shooter conveying helpful and logical advice as opposed to the other youtubers who just seem to waffle on with valueless information and narcissistic dribble. Thank you.
I don't live in London, or even in the UK. My nearest city has limited architecture. I search and search, but I cannot find shadows anything like the ones in your photos.
You can make your own photos. It’s okay If your city has limited architecture. Just create with whatever your city has. Because I also come from a city that has bad architectures, and I train my vision to be more selective to see a scene.
I agree with Aldila. Shoot during peak shadow hours and get some low angles to elongate. High contrast. Experiment and be creative. Even if you have to set up your own temporary settings! Have fun!
These videos have become my go to for advice on improving my street photography. I also love the way you work with people within the urban environment giving weight to both.
Really enjoying your work and just bought a copy of your book ! ( despite my loathing of ''film presets '' ) I do however reserve the right to be a hypocrite and buy a digital camera and start using presets one day
Rupert, what a fantastic channel. I'm not sure why I haven't found your videos sooner. I have been desperate to find a good fine art specific street photography channel for a long time. Your work is stunning, and I can't wait to see the next one. There's a lot of great info to be found in each video. I can't wait to start putting some into practice once I make up my mind on whether to swap out my chunky DSLR for an olympus em5 mk ii or fuji xt1. Amazing content, this channel will no doubt sky rocket in no time at all.
I recently bought a (used) OM-D E-M1x. It has GPS, pretty important for documenting where the camera was, and live ND because I want to play with motion blur and ICM. It's not small though.
Thank you Rupert, at 4:04 you give the sort of advice I’de been sort of waiting for many years.
Another great and inspirational presentation. Love your eye and strong images. A pleasure to view.
Really informative and well put together videos Rupert. Your work is also fantastic!
Another excellent video with very helpful examples of how you composed your images. Thanks for making the video (and sharing it).
Got the book. Arriving from UK on 10th. Looking forward to it. Great video as always.

Modern classics, as good as any renowned photog.
Especially in this day of C-phone camera's.
Your photos are beautifully composed. Reminds me of Fan Ho.
Thank you for this :)
thank you so much
Just beautiful images, puts me to shame … but inspires me to be better
Your videos are most helpful to me - thank you. But, being new to street photography, how do I avoid the clichés in this genre? Or, perhaps it doesn’t matter if I like the photo.
Rupert, do you shoot in colour and change in post, or do you shoot in black and white?
I shoot in colour with digital, always worth having a colour version too.

Love it! Another perfect amount of information to time ratio.
Exactly. I was about to comment that photography tips in under 7 minutes is a niche that seems rare on RUclips, but a massively valuable one.
Excellent tutorial on balanced compositions! Always looking forward to your next video!

Thanks Andy! Thumbs-up for the Olympus, majority of my images come via one.
@streetviewer Great stuff, i have been leaning more toward the Olympus so looks like that will be the choice.
