I realize that newsletters can be boring for some readers because we artists and photographers like to sell you stuff, our work, our services. It goes with the business of the profession, naturally. So my late New Year’s gift to you is leaving all of it out this month. Let’s rely on my sheer writing ability alone to carry this along even if my steering of this 1970s model leaves us with two wheels on the shoulder and a cloud of dust—and a gaggle of bewildered faces with open O mouthes a’gaping—wondering who that maniac was that just whizzed by.

I’m not advising you to avoid visiting Mumbai’s own Dhobi Ghat, the largest outdoor laundry in the world. This article only serves as a warning to photographers who may want to visit inside: be prepared to be let down by the experience.

Street photography has all kinds of benefits. I want to share a few of these with you because even if you’re not a hardcore enthusiast, you might be surprised by what the genre can do for you if you decide to pursue it even occasionally. I’m personally working on my ninth year of shooting street photography and I hope to be doing it for decades to come. Here’s what I’ve learned so far.

Knowing your purpose in street photography is one thing; packaging it and presenting it to the world is quite another. I guess I’ve known all along what my purpose has been in street photography and photography in general: turning people into art. It may sound generic. It may sound too vague. After all, isn’t that what portrait painters do? Or any number of other artists, for that matter?

Street photographers, like any photography enthusiast, do stupid things occasionally. And I’m not above it all; I’ve ticked most of the boxes on this list. The point is to learn and grow as street photographers and not repeat the same mistakes that hold us back.
I compiled the ‘7 Stupid Things That Street Photographers Do’ list based on my past mistakes and those of photographers I’ve explored the streets with over the past eight years in India and worldwide.

I’ll focus instead on three of the most important ones that I believe will help you take better candid shots on your next street photography adventure. The best part is that you probably won’t need to buy new gear unless you’re shooting film or own outdated tech (or just starting out). Essentially, these tips are for photographers using modern DSLRs and mirrorless systems although some of the tips would apply regardless of the gear you use.
