Description
Course Objective:
This course will teach you the fundamentals, approach, and execution of street photography.
Street photography has been around for many years as a documentary tool for our culture. This documentation of the growth and differences in our society sheds light on things that aren't normally seen. In our history we need those moments captured because, in the blink of an eye, those moments can be gone. The images that you capture today may not mean anything now, but in a few years they will mark a time in our history that is now immortalized.
