A Street Photographer's Notebook‪.‬

Street photography is one of the most challenging areas of the medium to undertake but it will produce some of the most compelling images in your portfolio. 

The techniques and strategies that we explore throughout the book can be used in our travel photography. Impressive vistas and detail shots are always good to have in our collection however, great images of local people going about their business really help to tell our stories.
