LondonStreet.photography exists to promote and encourage inclusive street photography. Inclusive in who we are and importantly, inclusive of our approach to photography; in our style, genres, technology and approach.
Street photographers is the basis of much great contemporary photography and we strive to be part of that by being forward looking photographers, pushing the boundaries while appreciating our shared past. From candid street images to street portraits, abstraction, street architecture, details, experimentation and much more; we like to see where street photography will take us. You will find us more interest in the images you make than the camera (or phone) you use and we are more likely to be found discussing a photographic exhibition than the latest camera release.But we do understand that technical competence and technique are important elements of our craft, helping us creating images we love. In addition to single images, we are also promote project based photography and recognise that street and documentary photography are very close bedfellows. We love to have an idea and to follow it over time, to capture an event or to document a situation as it develops. We see street photography as an active way to be involved with our city and to help educate, enlighten and entertain those we share it with. Whatever your street photography interests, you will find us encouraging, inquisitive and willing to help you enjoy and develop your photography. We also hope you will be open to help others in order to move street photography forwards. We run a free photography meetup every month, occassional image review sessions and a variety of paid workshops and classes throughout the year, all designed to help you improve and develop street photography. LondonStreet.photography is run by Peter Merry, an established street photographer, photography tutor, PAGB photo judge and workshop leader. He loves meeting and helping fellow street photographers and is keen to help them explore and improve their photographic practice.
