SUMMARY:Between Strangers: A Street Photography Intensive with Harvey Stein
  (Online)
DESCRIPTION:Street life offers boundless opportunities to create vital\,
  compelling photographs. Street photography remains one of the most
  dynamic and accessible forms of contemporary image-making\, where
  chance encounters and observation reveal stories hidden in plain
  sight. 
 
 Join Harvey Stein and the Griffin Museum of Photography for a
  dynamic\, small-cohort online intensive. With more than 50 years of
  experience photographing public life\, and decades of teaching street
  photography\, Stein brings a mentorship-driven approach rooted in
  curiosity\, craft\, and personal expression. 
 
 The workshop includes concise lectures\, live demonstrations\, curated
  image presentations\, and individual portfolio reviews of each
  participant's street work. A special guest artist will also present
  their practice and insights. 
 
 Core topics include: 
 
 -- Approaching and engaging with strangers
 
 -- Overcoming shyness in public-space photography
 
 -- Candid vs. directed and confrontational techniques
 
 -- Posing\, interaction\, and ethical observation
 
 -- Exposure\, metering\, and working with available light
 
 -- Daylight flash and the creative use of portable lighting
 
 -- Developing a personal visual voice while honoring narrative truth
 
 Designed for photographers looking to begin or advance their street
  practice\, this workshop offers practical tools\, renewed confidence\,
  and creative inspiration. Leave with a deeper understanding of street
  photography and a clearer\, more intentional approach to making
  meaningful images in public life.
