What is Street Photography?

Street photography captures people and places within their daily lives. It usually features subjects in candid situations within public places and does not necessitate the presence of a street or even the urban environment.

Street Photography: Do’s and Don'ts

Good judgment and good manners; be polite to who you could be potentially shooting.

Look for things, people, and places that interest you; Life is happening all around you, so capture the range of emotions and expressions that go along with it.

Make sure your ready for any picture opportunity; you may miss something amazing if your playing with your camera.

Don’tsDo’s

Act suspicious; people wont want you taking their photo if you don't ask.

Sneak up/stalk; whoever/whatever you could potentially capture won't like it if you shove the camera in their face.

Obsess over your camera.

Street Photographer: Alfred Eisenstaedt

Alfred Eisenstaedt was born in Dirschau (Tczew) in West Prussia, Imperial Germany in 1898. His family moved to Berlin in 1906. Eisenstaedt was fascinated by photography from his youth and began taking pictures at age 14 when he was given his first camera, an Eastman Kodak Folding Camera with roll

film. Eisenstaedt served in the German Army's artillery during World War I, and was wounded in 1918.

I like Eienstaedt’s work because his images capture the subjects emotions perfectly. His photography style shows a documentary or a photo journalistic style. His images are very natural and many are spontaneous which I love

about his photo's.

I think this photo is a good example of Street Photography as the couple are just enjoying the sun and minding their own business.

I think this photo is a great example of Juxtaposition as it shows business men in suits having a beer in the middle of the day.
