iPhone Street Photography

In this course, students will master street photography through the lens of the iPhone. The iPhone is a perfect tool for shooting on the street for both beginners and seasoned professionals. Timing is everything when it comes to street photography, what better camera to capture the life of the city than the one that is always within arms' reach. The iPhone camera is discrete, reactive and user-friendly. Students will practice the fundamental principles of iPhone street shooting via weekly assignments, street photography books and class critiques. Together we will interrogate the ethics of street photography, cover third party editing apps and explore issues of consent and best practices for interacting with strangers. A guest speaker will visit class to share their street photography practice. Class will go on one guided photo walk around the Lower East Side.
