Street Notes: A Street Photography Guide is a 113-page e-book packed with insights for street photographers of all skill levels, whether you’re just starting out, an intermediate photographer, or even an expert on the streets. Written over the summer, it covers both mindset and technique, sharing what I’ve learned over almost seven years of street photography.

While not a photo book necessarily, it does includes 63 of my images, demonstrating techniques, approaches, and creative ideas discussed throughout the guide.

Inside, you’ll explore:

• How to recognize scenes worth photographing and why we make photos

• Gear advice: primes vs. zooms, wide vs. long lenses, digital vs. film, plus my camera settings

• Best times and places to shoot, including how to navigate rain, snow, and busy streets

• Techniques for anticipating moments, working the scene, and interacting with people

• Developing style, curating work, and breaking out of creative ruts

• Ethics, legality, cultural awareness, and overcoming fear of confrontation

• External resources: affordable photo books, documentaries, YouTube channels, and my exclusive street photography playlist

• + Much more! You can view the full Table of Contents in the online store images to see if the topics are something you’re interested in learning.

You’ll also get access to my curated street photography resources, including an exclusive, unlisted external YouTube playlist and other materials to extend your learning.

This guide is available as a downloadable .PDF file (~25 MB, 113 pages), dimensions 768x1024, standard for e-books, and viewable on most devices including tablets, computers, and e-readers. Load times may vary depending on your device and connection. For the best experience, I recommend using a larger screen rather than a smartphone.

You can check out via the “cart” icon in the webpage navigation (on mobile = hamburger icon on top right).

Your support means everything. I put a tremendous amount of time and effort into creating my videos, zines, and this guide. By spending the price of a casual lunch on this project (which will last forever), you’re helping me continue making this art and pursue my passion.

Thank you so much.
