Candid, & Unplanned

Streetside photography emphasises capturing spontaneous, unposed moments from everyday life. It's about observing and documenting the world as it unfolds, rather than staging or directing scenes.

The focus is on capturing the ordinary, often overlooked moments of daily life as it seeks to reveal the beauty, humour, and drama inherent in everyday situations
