For my first conceptual shoot, I am going to have my first go of doing street photography as I have never done it before. This shoot will be done on my overseas trip to Iceland and I am going to do it over a couple of days. The reason I am doing this shoot is so I can know what do expect when doing street photography throughout the rest of my project and so I can also get to grips with my camera settings. The location of my shoot will be Reykjavik, which is the largest city in Iceland. Hopefully, it will be a busy area so I can practice taking images of people in a candid, natural setting. I will also be taking images of the scenery and the architecture because all though it is not what I am focusing on in my project, I believe in will help my understanding and development of street photography.
The equipment I will be using is, my camera Nikon D810, and I also have two lens; a 50mm and a 70-300mm. I will also bring a long with me spare SD cards in case I run out of space and also a spare battery in case it runs out. This shoot will be done during the day time, therefore, I will need to use a low ISO. I also want my images to be clear and sharp so I will also be using a fast shutter speed. My aperture will depend on the depth of field I want for the particular shot.
There will not be a lot of obstacles when it comes to completing this shoot, apart from maybe the weather, the lack of people in the City and the fact that members of the public may not appreciate me taking photographs of them but these issues can easily be overcome by me improvising and respecting other peoples wishes. This shoot will help me progress because it will be the first experience of me doing street photography so I can learn what to expect when doing it again.
