Simple ways to overcome the fear of shooting street photography !

We take a trip in to Liverpool to attempt to shoot a video with a few tips and tricks to help you feel more relaxed about shooting street photography.

I will try to include a few camera tricks and show you ways to stand and use a camera around people and show you how people are really not interested in you taking photographs as long as you don’t interrupt there day or get in their personal space.

My Street Photography is more classic and on the candid side but you can use these ideas in what ever style you want.

I very really approach people as I don’t want to alter the dynamic in the scene but it people start to wonder what I am doing and want me to take their photo this can happen but its very rare.

In the UK we can shoot who ever we want in a public place but just remember to treat other people how you would like to be treated what taking their photo.

I use 3 main techniques one just holding the camera to my eye and shooting anther using the rear screen and the last one is the X100 around my neck on a strap shooting from the hip, depends what camera I have and what mood I am in.

Thanks to Barrie for help with video today and I might have to sort my microphones out for the future !
