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?
Include the pics in your portfolio to uni. Simple as that.
Your friend believing it’s creepy is their problem, not yours. If what you do is legal and hurts no one, just do it. Life is too short.
If all your friends and the rest of society believes it’s creepy (e.g. photographing kids at the swimming pool), then maybe you need to re-evaluate, even if it’s legal. But this is not that situation.
