It all started more as a hobby, of course, when I started
to be interested in photography, I just discovered street style and, accordingly,
at some point discovered all the street photographers and that clicked for me and it worked when I was on vacation or even
at home, I went on the street and photographed cool people.
I would now slightly move her to the left
and I will relatively stay long with my distance, around 135 to 85.
Street Style changed in the last year, but also over the last decade it natural changed. Generally through digital cameras
end of the 20th century, this whole scene got a lot more attention. Especially through photographers such as Tommy Ton or Adam Katz Sinding.
They pushed the entire medium to the front. And now through
the influencer, the focus in street style the spotlight is more on them.
I am now at f2, shutter speed 2500 and ISO 800. This gives me the opportunity
with the shutter speed on 2500 to perfectly freeze her movements while she walks across the street.
With f/2 the background is nicely blurred, perfect for the clean commercial look.
The Street Style community is a very small community, where you usually know most people.
you support each other and many photographers because of whom I personally
learned a lot and am also super grateful that we have such a community, which
we can always look forward to seeing each other. I'm always happy to
know I when I'm back at fashion week, I will be able to see my people. That's pretty cool.
We just shoot really clean photos with the 85mm.
And now I want to try out this location with her sitting down. I will be shooting with my Leica to get a more creative look, and a
a bit editorial like. Personally, especially at the beginning I
drew a lot of inspiration from the street style photographer who pushed modern street style photography.
Such as Jonathan Pryce, Adam Katz Sinding, and Tommy Ton.
John Filo also creates cool photographs, that are again very different. I personally photograph
shoot on a Canon. Especially now with the new mirrorless cameras, older DSLRS
bodies, that are used, have become pretty cheap. Maybe the 5D Mark
III, sometimes you are lucky and you can find a 5D Mark IV for a good price.
Or a Canon 6D. All of them are full-frame bodies and a good beginner bodies.
So what is of course always good to know, is to choose some points
that overall completes the look. Maybe have a nice close-up here.
Don't forget the accessories such as the bag. It's also nice to shoot the jewellery.
This will help fill out the picture, which is nice to look at.
For example here, you can show the details of the look. It is also nice
to keep in mind, especially when you have an outfit like this
with different materials and textiles to show that in your shots.
This is what makes fashion so fascinating.
We just changed the location. We lost a bit of light and the background is very restless, but now you have to make sure
that it does not get too restless. We are going to find a corner where it's not too busy.
In this corner, the light is reflected quite a bit and we have to make sure the light stays consistent..
One should keep in mind to shoot the logos from the look.
Of curse, is also very focused on brands and the clothes themselves.
Especially, if you are shooting for a that for commercial customers
it's very important to shoot all these details. Shoot as much as you can, especially in the beginning.
You come home in the evening, check your pictures, notice what you did wrong, and shoot
the next day again in order to improve yourself. The principle is
to repeat this circle of shooting and reviewing your work.
You need to adapt and connect with as many people
as possible. In the end, you will see results.
