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?

    If you think of your photography as art, then it’s not creepy. If it bothers you though, then I would suggest quickly asking people if it’s ok that you use their image. Does it matter? No, but you might have some peace of mind, and then you have something to tell any haters.
