Welcome to my YouTube channel! My name is Gareth Danks, and I am a passionate street photographer based in the UK, covering Europe and beyond. This channel is dedicated to helping photographers improve their street photography skills, build confidence on the streets, and form a community. Here, we discuss tips and tricks, as well as provide advice for both beginner and experienced street photographers. I also run my own digital street photography magazine called F/8 Street Mag. This quarterly publication is designed to explore multiple genres of street photography and help readers embrace and understand their strengths and weaknesses. I post street photography videos regularly, so consider subscribing, and let’s hit the streets together! Contact me for information on street photography workshops Gareth :-) www.garethdanks.co.uk
