Living in the Moment with Street Photography

Join us for an evening with Dustin Grau, an Atlanta based photographer who has spent the past several years capturing candid moments in his local city of Duluth, GA. His work at those same city events recently earned him a silver award for Best Vendor from the Southeastern Festivals and Events Association for 2018.

For this presentation on street photography, Dustin will share some experiences and tips while capturing fleeting moments of suburban and urban life. Obvious topics such as suitable camera equipment will be covered, as well as more cautious tales on potential ethical and legal issues with this type of photography. Strategies will be shared for taking candid photos while in plain view, how to anticipate moments, and offering some fun games to play for those who are nervous or shy about taking photos of strangers.

Dustin’s most recent and ongoing work can be found via his Flickr account, https://www.flickr.com/photos/justindustin/, and Facebook Page, https://www.facebook.com/grauphoto/.

Our September theme is Street Photography defined as "A candid image that captures a moment of life, culture or humanity.
Typically these moments feature chance encounters and random incidents in public places."
