Photographing strangers on the streets - Whyte ave edition


Details
In this session, we will walk down Whyte ave and ask strangers for their permission to photograph them. This can be very intimidating at first.
I will provide coaching and tips on how to face your personal insecurities and get the picture.
This meetup is restricted to 6 attendees.
I want to be able to give everyone my whole attention. Also, too many people can scare strangers. Smaller groups will allow a higher success rate in getting these images.
This meeting is intended for intermediate and advanced users. You should already have a good grasp on basic camera functions. This session is about overcoming your personal fears and trying something new.
Here's what you can expect to learn:
-How to choose the right subject
-How to present yourself to the subject
-How to formulate a question that yields high success
-How to take a no a keep going forward
-How to choose the right location
We will meet at the new Remedy on Whyte ave at 1pm.
The session will last 2 hours or until we run out of light.
Don't hesitate to send me any questions.
Unable to attend, but still curious about the process?
Read up the blog I wrote from a previous photoshoot.
There's also a bts video if you'd like to see how I do it myself.
