To be more specific as time passed I’ve noticed a shift in the way I approach street photography, in the earlier days I’d be more open to photograph people on the streets and while I still do, I’ve adjusted to taking photos from more of a distance or ideally from angles where their faces aren’t directly in the frame. Feels a bit weird at times because you’d think that as you shoot more you get comfortable with these scenarios. Maybe it’s a form of growth to respect peoples personal space, a bit more but I also just prefer that look. I don’t think there is a right or wrong way to handle street photography but curious to hear what others have experienced over time.

    You’re limiting yourself. For me street photographers are capturing life so everyone can look back in time later. It’s not about the person in the photo, it’s about how people live today and capturing it.

    I haven’t had any issues and in my experience most people don’t mind or even notice, some ask for a street portrait because photographers take good photos.
