Street photography:

Street photography is a type of photography that focuses on capturing moments in everyday life, often in public places such as streets, parks, or urban settings. The goal is to capture human experience and provide real phenomena. Street photography often emphasizes spontaneous moments, the interaction between light and shadow, and the environment in which people interact. It is characterized by a focus on natural, unplanned scenes rather than stage or director’s work.

Statement of Intent:

The title of this project is story in the Hutong. The concept and story I want to tell with my photographs is what happens in Hutong, people’s dynamics, different things that happen every day and people’s daily life. I want the audience to feel the warmth and fun of life through street photography, and behind each photo there are different meanings and people’s lives. I will get inspiration and develop my ideas by looking for photographs that play with composition, and perspective&angles, for example: leading lines, layering, high level..etc,also the contrast of light and shadow, the deep and dark area need to be showed. And I will get inspiration and develop my ideas by looking for photographs that shoot urban life and people in street walking.
