Hi. Just curious, when you do street photography, regarding your photos with one or two people, do you ask the people if they mind if you take their photo, or just snap, post and hope that if they see your photo, they don't mind?

My biggest concern with snapping Street Photography or landscape shots with people, is that if I post it somewhere, or enter it in a contest or show, people will see it and get upset I didn't ask them first.

Maybe part of that has to do with an experience a senior friend and her mom had with an in-home caregiving company. The caregiver took them to the beach,( a public place they could probably "get away with") took photos of my friends with their dogs, then posted one of the photos in a brochure without ever telling them why they were taking the photos, or bothering to ask their permission about posting them in the brochure. So am a little sensitive to invading anyone's space and privacy, and wondering how you handle this.
Thank you,
PhotoNat

As Sue points out it's legal to take photos in a public area. Look up "reasonable expectation of privacy". However, It seems that in this case the person taking the photos are using them to advertise their occupation in a brochure. In other words they are making money from the photo their caretaker took. My understanding is, If you use images of people to make money or advertise a company WITHOUT written permission you've open yourself up for a lawsuit.


Just yesterday I had my granddaughter at the park & taking photos when some asked me NOT to include her child in any of the photos. I insured her that I would not.

Hope this helps a little.

Nice start but I find them a little dsrk, maybe under exposed?
I try to have a "story " in the images but it is really what you see as the photographer that counts 😊
Perhaps a focal point which draws the eye to the subject/s
Just my opinion

So this year I've decided that I'm going to branch out and try new things with my photography. Street Photography is my first new genre and it is definitely "outside my comfort zone". I shoot mostly wildlife and landscape so this one was a tough one for me.....now I'll admit that when I choose this topic I thought it was something entirely different but a fellow UHH'er whom I asked advice set me straight (thanks SueScott!!!).

So show me what y'all have.....here's my first attempt at street photography.

I have not tried street photography before. Just not good at taking pictures of people. So I bundled up and went on my river walk today. There are usually a lot of people walking kids or dogs or just running. There were not a lot of people out and about today. I did get two though.

Thanks Tim, I agree that the intrusion is the part that makes it difficult for me. While shooting the group of karaoke performers it became awkward when they realized I was photographing them and them started posing and then of course they tried to get me to take the mic! LOL, that's certainly wasn't happening!

I like this group of images Tim - that last one, with the guy in the background also taking a photo! Nice catch!


Thanks, Nancy. I'm glad you enjoyed them...

...here are a couple more I stumbled upon...lol
