This course explores street portraiture and how spontaneous interactions can capture personalities and intimate stories. Various assignments help students to develop a personal style and create powerful images, while critiques and lectures delve into the history and cultural aspects of street photography. We also examine several techniques, including composition, lighting, and depth of field, and different approaches for photographing strangers.
Course Level / Prerequisite: Intermediate: You are familiar with a camera, whether film or digital.
