They shouldnt photograph anything rude or offensive.



Ethical Considerations for Street Photographers

Street Photographers should photograph anything racist. They should be careful what, who, and where they photograph. For example, if a street photographer were to photograph a muslim in an offlicence, that would be really offensive and slightly racist, it is juxtaposition. They need to be careful what they take their photographs of. Street photographers should not take pictures of other peoples children, to be respectful. Ethical considerations for street photographers are about representing people in the right way and in a positive way, its about how you portray them. It is also about photographing them in ways that are not offensive, racist, disrespectful to their religion, their age or their sex.
