With both training and preparation, a street photographer needs to
make rapid decisions; there may only be a fraction of a second to
immortalize a moment in time that has never happened before and
will never happen again. This is where Street Photography: Creative
Vision Behind the Lens comes in. Follow Valerie Jardin on an
inspiring photo walk around the world. After an overview of the
practical and technical aspects of street photography, Valerie
takes you along on a personal photographic journey as she hits the
streets of her favorite urban haunts. She shows you the art of
storytelling through her photographs, from envisioning the image to
actually capturing it in the camera. Learn about the technical and
compositional choices she makes and the thought process that
spurred the click of the shutter. Perfect for both the new
photographer excited to capture the world around them and for the
experienced street photographer wishing to improve their techniques
and images, Street Photography requires no special equipment, just
a passion for seeing and capturing the extraordinary in the
ordinary.

Learn to train your eye and improve your timing in order to capture
the decisive moment! Whether it's due to social media or the
introduction of great rangefinder-style digital cameras over a
decade ago, street photography has experienced a remarkable
resurgence in recent years. You can be roaming the streets of a
classic urban environment (New York, Paris, Tokyo) or on a simple
photo walk around a quiet neighborhood--it has never been more
popular to pursue the art of capturing those candid, fleeting
moments that happen throughout the day, of freezing a moment in
time and transforming the ordinary into an extraordinary
photograph. But learning to see light and moment, to make quick
decisions, and to nail a photographic composition are all crucial
skills you must master in order to become a good street
photographer. Photographer, instructor, and author Valerie Jardin
has been teaching photographers how to take better photographs for
years, and in Street Photography Assignments: 75 Reasons to Hit the
Streets and Learn, she provides dozens of prompts for you to
practice in order to refine and improve your craft. These
activities focus on themes such as: - Street portraits - Gesture -
Shadows - Silhouettes - Rim light - Humor - Abstract - Tension -
Motion - Reflections - Leading lines - Creative framing -
Juxtapositions - Double exposures - And much, much more! Each
assignment includes a description of the technique, various tips
and tricks to practice, technical and compositional considerations,
and an example photo that Jardin has captured when practicing the
same exercise. Whether you have 30 minutes or 3 hours, each
assignment is an opportunity for you to take your camera and hit
the streets. No more excuses!
