  • 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

      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.

You should work as a teacher on whatever subject. Your students would be blessed. Great job, best regards from Berlin

    Mr. Gonzalez,
    This is my favorite video from you, the way you’ve explained the street photography with the whole diagram is beyond one’s expectations! Your video is a hundred times more potent than the ones that most people actually pay for.
    Very Grateful. A lifetime subscriber.

    @boris512 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    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 would like for you to also look at this other TH-camr 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

    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 😊
