The organizer

Street Photographers Foundation
Our goal is to offer a publication that talks about and focuses on street photography in terms of language and as an art form.
Verified organizer
Street Photographers is a foundation that is entirely dedicated to street photography. It is a place where you will find stories about people from the street and get some tip from them. The intent is to provide a platform for emerging photographers, artists and designers to showcase their works to create opportunities and open new doors. The subjects explored are broad, in terms of concepts, styles, and techniques. We want to explore the limits and possibilities.
