How to shoot street style: Our foolproof guide to becoming a pro in 6 steps!

If the careers of The Sartorialist or Tommy Ton are anything to go off of, it’s safe to say that street style photography has proven it’s an art form to be reckoned with. While we might not all have the wherewithal to follow in the steps of Garance Doré or Hanneli Mustaparta, knowing how to take a good street style picture is still an invaluable skill to have in your repertoire. It’s a talent that not only comes in handy for style shots but also for capturing other moments in life, from a close-up of a rose to a portrait of loved ones.

Our model of choice is the stylish and compact Panasonic LUMIX GF3X (its new iA mode features face recognition and motion detection, among other things), but for the most part, even the most basic digital cameras have a manual function that gives you more control over different tools. Whether you want to break into the street style blogging world or simply hope to fine-tune your photography skills, we have some basic tips to get you snapping like a pro in no time!
