Hey guys! The best way to do street photography is to have a plan before you step outside. But what CAN you shoot? In this video we explore ALL the types of street photography subjects you can capture. The goal here is not to be a be-all-end-all guide, but a step to understanding the variety of photographs we can create on the streets. I am by no means a street photography expert, so comment with anything you think might help the group.
Let's do this!!
Cheers,
-Omar

GUYS! I worked so hard on this video. Crazy how 17 minutes can actually take over a week. Please give it a thumbs up if it helped you at all. Cheers.

Exactly what I thought as I watched -- this took a lot of work. Thanks. You may also want to consider transport as a category -- subways, buses, taxis, bicycles, airports, Penn Station, etc. etc.

Street shooting in Brasil may be a little dangerous, but I love it. I have a real problem in dealing with people, and I LOVED the "people implied" idea. Really great.

Following you quite a while, I just found that video and it is nothing less than brilliant. So structured, so intuitive, so helpful to get an idea what street photography all can be. You should work as a teacher on whatever subject. Your students would be blessed. Great job, best regards from Berlin

Brother you need to put all this in a book. This is what I have been looking for over 10 years an excellent breakdown thank you Omar probably watch this video over 30 times before the year ends. I would like for you to also look at this other KZfaqr can't remember his name but he did a video on nostalgia in photography or street photography please take a look and I would love to see you touch upon that issue in your own words or possibly a video thanks again -Christopher

@boris512 9 ай бұрын

I think you nailed it. This would be a great way to start any street photography course. I do usually think about this type of thing before I go out. What do I feel like chasing today? how brave am I feeling? What is the light like? What lens do I feel like using? And then maybe picking 1 or 2 or 3 of these to focus on.

I'm still new to street photography and this is very helpful to someone who might be having an "identity crisis" as to what kind of photos they're more inclined to taking when out on the streets. But I've found that the best way to learn is to dive in, learn from experience and in time you'll know what you love and feel comfortable with shooting. It's a never ending journey and expect a lot of failures along the way 😊

As somehow who JUST got into street photography (and just photography in general), i can't explain how helpful this video was! For the most part I started just taking photos of things that caught my interest (color coordination, patterns) without any particular goal/theme. I think I will try to focus on a few of these types at a time and figure out what resonates with me.
