Street Photography - Day & Night

Level: Photography - Confident Beginner

Zack Arias is a commercial and editorial photographer. His world is one where he is in control of everything most of the time. When this bores him to tears and he can take it no longer, he grabs a camera, a lens, and hits the streets of whatever town he finds himself in and works on, what he calls, his hobby of street photography.

 

The beauty of street photography is the lack of control of the environment, the subjects and, most importantly, the light. Work through the streets of Dubai as you set out to shoot a travel piece about the place and the people of this city in the day and night time. Candid moments, details, and impromptu portraits are all elements of street photography.


Zack will teach about gear choices to make, handling yourself on the street, approaching strangers, and dealing with constantly changing variables.

Zack has walked and photographed countless miles through the streets of cities all around the world including Hong Kong, New York, London, and of course, our home of Dubai. His street work has been showcased on CNN.
