In this video, shot in Cardiff, I show practical, confidence‑building ways to approach and photograph strangers on the street — not candid shots, but street‑portrait work that’s hugely rewarding. If you’ve felt nervous about talking to people during workshops or out shooting, I’ll walk you through simple techniques, mindset tips, and real examples that make the process easy (and addictive).

I demo the Godox IT30Pro flash to create dynamic, flattering street portraits and use my Leica Q2 in black‑and‑white mode to monitor flash and ambience. Whether you’re learning street photography or want to add portraiture to your toolkit, you’ll get actionable steps to start shooting confidently.
