My Experience of Street Photography
Personally I found it quite hard to ask people to take pictures of them mostly because i'm not confident with talking to people I don't know whereas some people in my class are gifted with the confidence to speak with strangers and persuade them to let them take a picture. I looked for people who seemed approachable and would've allowed me to take pictures of them and I politely asked them and if they denied the request I respected that and let them get on with their normal routine. My main goal in street photography was to get "candid" pictures.
