Street Photography - Day & Night

Level: Photography - Confident Beginner

More than just a genre of photography, street photography is the quintessential experience of a photographer interacting with the spontaneity of the world around him or her, applying a photographic eye to the subjects, angles, and light in pursuit of that decisive moment. In this workshop, you will work through the streets of Old Dubai under the guidance of Zack Arias, capturing candid moments, details, and impromptu portraits.

Zack will teach you about ideal gear choices, handling yourself on the street, approaching strangers, and dealing with constantly changing variables. He has walked and photographed countless miles through the streets of cities all around the world including Hong Kong, New York, London, Paris, Havana and Dubai, and has had his street work showcased on CNN and in Complex Magazine.
With a presentation and demonstration before you hit the street, and periodic pauses for critique and Q&A, you will receive feedback as you go to work back into your practice and help you grow as a photographer.

 

PLEASE NOTE: Although the content of this workshop is identical to Street Photography (also with Zack Arias), the experience is slightly different due to the timings, which allow for a day time and evening photo walk. Please take care when booking to choose the option that works best for your schedule.
