A while ago I made a post on hear asking if it was OK to post pictures of people in street photography, the general consensus was yes and its legal in England.
For some context I’m building a portfolio for uni and wanted to show off all my images.
Well my frend mentioned today it was super creepy and run as I didn’t have their consent.
I’m torn, it was in a public place, its completely legal, you can’t really tell who thay are in most of them,
Idk, I feel super bad, but I don’t wanna delete them as they really add to my uni application. All photos have some people in If you’re taking street photography.
What should I do?
Do newspaper photographers ask every person they photograph before they click the shutter? How would that even work? You literally couldn’t cover the news with a camera if you had to ask subjects first because everyone who didn’t want to be in the news – criminals, politicians, etc. – would just refuse consent.
