Tips for grabbing the attention of street photographers


With the ubiquitous penetration of the internet, the fashion industry has undergone major changes. Now you don't have to be a talented designer or a great top model to start making money in the fashion world. It is enough to become an Instagram star and they will start making interesting offers to you.


How to develop your Instagram page? Whole sites have been created on this topic, but today we will talk about how to attract the attention of street photographers who will photograph you and thereby increase your awareness. This path is much more interesting than using special services for page promotion and writing comments from celebrities.


If you want photographers to forever immortalize your style in the fashion media, head over to Fashion Week and take note of these tips.


How to get the attention of street photographers

1. Basics


Know that street photographers respond to the simplest impulses, and in order to excite them:


• wear brightly colored clothes for a fashionable photo

• wear only black - you will look like the editor of a fashion magazine

• wear big glasses / big sunglasses / big hat - the less visible you are, the more interest you will get

• wear high heels. Very tall and / or very strange and / or colorful. If your shoes are made of old doorknobs / Lego constructors / plush animals, then an increased interest in you is guaranteed!

• mix incredible prints in one outfit

• wear open shoes without stockings in winter or fur in summer - dressing out of season is very fashionable

• Wear this season's object of desire or a chic vintage from the couture collection.

• Wear something weird — like shoes like a hat, make yourself a skirt out of a bathroom curtain, borrow a road worker's uniform to wear with your plastic bag. You'd be surprised how well these tricks work!

2. Make the right impression


Impression number 1
Take care of your cell phone, but don't bother talking on it - it doesn't look good in photos - just listen, or better yet, text someone.


Impression number 2
Look busy! Hold in your hands unusual invitation cards (as if you are going to some event) Don't you have any invitation cards? Just grab as many brightly colored flyers as you like and walk fast enough (as if the driver is waiting for you - you are such an important person) with the feeling that you want to be left alone, but at the same time, do not overdo it - keep calm ...



Impression number 3
Stop the taxi as if you were dancing the dance of the little swans, it will help you avoid the long line!


Are you coming by taxi? Never go out directly in front of the entrance - this is a big mistake. Try to get out at least on the other side of the street - you should give photographers enough time to notice you.


Attention: What to do if you came at the same time with Anna Dello Russo? Don't go first. Give her at least 10 minutes to pose properly for the photographers - this should be enough for her to finally enter the hall where the show will take place.



3. If you are desperate


Street photographers are always attracted to other street photographers, in which case it doesn't matter what you're wearing. If you've really tried everything above and are ready to give up, ask two or three of your friends with big cameras to run around you and take photos of you continuously.


4. If you are really desperate


Find Anna Dello Russo, Giovanna Battaglia or Taylor Tomasi Hill and just stand next to them when they are photographed.With a little luck, sooner or later you will find yourself in one of the pictures. Everyone has to start somewhere, right?


5. Be careful and attentive, never pretend that you are desperate!


Street photographers are like predators: they are not attracted to too easy prey, no matter how fashionable it looks. Do not stand near the entrance overlooking "Well, take a picture of me!".


Make yourself a coveted subject of photography. Or even vice versa - make it clear that you don't want to pose, this will make them try hard to get a good shot - everyone wants to take a great photo of Anna Wintour, because she never stops to pose on purpose.



6. It worked! You've been photographed! How not to spoil everything ...


• If asked who you are, pretend you don't speak English, French, Japanese, or don't speak at all. Just tell them the name and let them be tormented by guesswork - are you by chance the editor-in-chief of a famous fashion site...
• Never ask where you can see the photo.

It is pointless to waste energy and pose before the start of evening and night shows. The lighting is very bad, therefore, you hardly meet photographers, at this time they strive to process photographs taken during the day.
