I'm a landscape photographer and shooting people taught me wo much. In landscapes, I have all the time I need to line up the shot, move half an inch to the left, half an inch down, but with people you have maybe two seconds to line up and take the shot. You have to talk to them, the way they react to you makes you part of the shot.

The shade being thrown at "Online Photographers" needed to be said. Too many ppl are worried about being famous instead of properly learning the craft of Photography.

[@Moodboard39]

They care about likes , and followers ..can't stand that shit

[@williamshakespeare9815]

Yep. A lot of people have got into photography because it's the cool thing at th moment.

Hello Marc (and Dan). I enjoy the conversations between you two gentlemen. I grew up in Pebble Beach, by the way, and on a recent visit to the Peninsula, I photographed the owners of Lafayette Bakery in the "Barnyard". Whilst sitting at a table enjoying coffee and quiche I spontaneously asked if I could take some shots of the owners at work. No problem. I don't want to analyze my technique in approaching strangers with a camera, because it works. And Dan is right, if you promise to send your subjects a print, do it, because it builds trust in photographers and it's the right thing to do.

That’s great. We’re a stones throw from the barnyard. I use a recording studio there. Let me know when you’re in town again. Where in pebble ?

@@marcsilber We lived on Valdez Rd. off of Stevenson Drive from 1956 to 1969. I'm a PGHS grad. My dad was vice principal at PG high. Speaking of "access" and our "elevator pitch," I made a cold call (knocked on the door) at my first childhood house, at the top of the hill on Weldon Grove Place, in PG, and asked the current owner if I could take some shots inside the house. I had prepared a packet of reprints of family photos taken at the house in 1954, to show the owner: Bingo! In Photoshop, I overlaid photos taken in the living room c1954, on top of my contemporary shots. And I sent prints to the owner (as promised) so that he could get a glimpse of life in his house c1954. I'll definitely contact you before my next visit! Cheers!

[@marcsilber]

Cool story. We live on Ronda road not too far away. Keep shooting!

[@KatSNAILS]

[@tierra41]

Thanks!

[@marcsilber]

thank you so much for the Super Thanks! It really means a lot to us!

[@DanielMontenegro140982]

There is always a person in photography, at least the photographer itself. You see the photographer in the work they create. Araki says photography is copying yourself on something else or somebody else. Interesting standpoint IMO.

[@HuthsReportagen]

Great content 👍
