Why I Started This Street Photography Blog.

Street photography has always pulled me in for the same reason cities do: the hum of movement, the quick slices of humanity, and the quiet moments hiding in plain sight. This blog is my attempt to slow those moments down, study them, and share what I learn along the way.

I’m starting this space for three reasons. First, to document my growth as a photographer—wins, mistakes, experiments, and everything in between. Street photography isn’t a straight line; it’s a process full of missed shots, unexpected interactions, and fleeting opportunities. Writing about it helps me see the patterns.

Second, I want to share practical tips with anyone interested in this genre. So much advice online is either too vague or too technical. My goal is to create guides that focus on real-world experience: the settings I actually use, the situations I struggle with, the gear that has earned its place in my bag, and the techniques that genuinely work on the street.

Finally, this blog is a place to explore the ethics and culture surrounding street photography. The streets belong to everyone, and photographing people requires awareness, respect, and empathy. I’m excited to dive into those conversations as well.

Thanks for stopping by. I’m glad you’re here—and I hope the posts ahead inspire you to get out, walk a little slower, and see your city in a new way.
