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?
I stick to the law and I have a few personal morale rules I follow, for example I don’t generally take photos of homeless people, vagrants (is that the right word?) etc, I never publish them on social if I do. I won’t publish pictures that rely on the aesthetics of the person for their sole interest, anyone can take a picture of a hansom/pretty/well dressed person and people will like it, I’ve not added anything.
