StreetSnappers Street Photography Workshops

StreetSnappers Street Photography Workshops All things street photography: news, views, insights and opinion. See website for more resources. Our workshops concentrate on ‘getting the picture’.

We are an established, UK-based street photography education business. On our full-day street photography workshop you will learn the art and the essential techniques of street photography – whether in London, other major UK cities or in European cities such as Venice, Lisbon, Paris, Rome or Prague. We don’t get too bogged down with technicalities (though we do cover the essential basics such as c

amera settings, focusing, exposure, etc); we prefer to make the most of our time together by focusing on five key areas:

1 Building your confidence as a street photographer, conquering your fear of shooting on the streets
2 Developing your powers of observation so that you ‘see’ the opportunity
3 Helping you understand the principles of light and composition in travel or street photography
4 Coaching you in the essential shooting techniques to ensure that you capture ‘the moment’
5 Enabling you to take stylish and meaningful images which go beyond the often-seen ‘stranger in a street’ picture

Our Principal and Course Tutor is Brian Lloyd Duckett, a well-known London street photographer. Prior setting up a successful commercial and editorial photography business, Brian has worked as a press and agency photographer on the streets on London and many other cities. Brian’s latest book on street photography techniques – ‘Mastering Street Photography‘ – is published by Ammonite Press (2016) and is available in bookshops worldwide. He teaches as a Visiting Lecturer on photography degree courses and is a board member of the BPPA (British Press Photographers’ Association). Keeping it in the family, Alex Duckett assists on workshops, runs our marketing and social media and generally helps make the business tick. A history graduate, Alex is a keen street photographer and is currently helping to establish our courses in other European cities. And, last but not least, Johannah looks after our workshop administration and finances and has developed a talent for keeping the boys on track!

Hi ,

Do you want to get into a more documentary style of photography but are struggling to make a start? My workshop next month may be of interest . . .

It's a 2-day documentary workshop based on UK politics. The political temperature in the UK is rising fast and the local elections on May 7th could provide a turning point in the direction our country takes.

This provides the perfect backdrop for a politically-themed documentary project. Starting with a 2-day workshop in London which will focus partially on the local elections, you will continue to work on your project for up to 12 months, the aim being to produce a cohesive body of work and, ultimately, a zine.

Your project need not be focused on London and, in fact, you have the ideal opportunity to complete your project wherever you live, from the smallest village to the biggest city; politics happens everywhere and there will be no shortage of stories during the next 12-18 months.

The backbone of the project is a 2-day documentary workshop which will take place in and around Westminster on the day of the May 7th local elections and on ‘results day’, the 8th.

There are 2 places left.

*** NEW PODCAST ***

Hi
The latest podcast is now LIVE and ready for downloading!
Today we feature some of your questions, we look at street photography definitions, I ask if monochrome cameras are worth buying and I pose the question ‘do you need to get out of your comfort zone’?
I still need YOUR questions for future episodes! Thanks to everyone who’s submitted a question so far - it will definitely be used - but I need more! If you have a question for the show, just record yourself on your phone - saying your name, where you’re from and then the question; if you’d like a mention for your Instagram or website, mention that at the end. Then just email me the clip.

Episode 4 of the Street Photography Podcast is now out!

Stuck in a creative rut? Hear how a grey Liverpool day sparked a new project, why Venice is street heaven, and questions about photography degrees, project doldrums and which cameras are right for you. Plus a spicy rant on “multi‑award winning” hype.

A grey, damp morning in Liverpool turned into a turning point. Over a coffee, we opened an old Lightroom archive and spotted a pattern hiding in plain sight—enough images from Ropewalks to seed a real project. That small reframing changed the day,...
