Street Photography intro

Street photography includes taking photos of people who would not be in a magazine, advertisement, or music video.

Normal, regular, nonglamorous individuals are marginalized in favor of the super stars and beauty icons.

Street photography, as opposed to models and special lighting, takes humans as they are, where they are, doing what they do, looking how they look.

Often you and your camera glimpse their unconscious face, catching the subject off guard, unprepared to form the standard mask of self.

Celebrating the colloquial, instead of celebrities, brings democracy a breath of fresh air.
