Give me tips to become a successful and famous street snapper

Inb4 street is not art nor a valid form of photography

>be a weird looking dork
>don't act like a man authentic to his inner self
>only follow ig accounts and never read books or try to deviate from your genre
>any knowledge other than surface level is fatal for you and you will use it for posturing on ig rather than deeply engaging with it
>shoot film on shitty thrift store cameras and tell everyone and their dog about it and how authentic you are
>never have any ideas just shooooot trillion photos
>never think about your work just shoooot trillion of photos of people on the street a cctv camera
>act like a vapid teenager on your ig
>act like a broke starving artist even though you have a trustfund
>present the idea of being a street photographer and how cool it is to be a street photographer rather than actually making good projects
>suck off some famous youtuber to do a street photowalk video with you
>wear zoomer clothing in that video
>act a punk but a safe punk, a politically correct ethical punk
congratulations, pussy and money will come thy way. when you are enjoying your 15mins of fame try to milk it as much as you can by selling merch and prints

then follow the footsteps on moriyama. i won't spoonfeed you. read about his life and look at his work. look at his teachers and influences. look at what kind of conditions made him what he was. research everything and then apply it yourself. and practice like him but don't copy him. find your style. just bee yourself

also don't be ugly.

It's not photography it's not a valid form of art

Carry pepper spray, get as close as possible, and fear no one. Also use a powerful flash for all your photography.

Learn zone focusing for the quickest of snaps.

dont take pics of the backs of people's heads
and then, perhaps, shoot what you want to shoot

but since it's art, what you want to actually do like all great artists before them, is copy the greats that already did it before you

what you'll realize is that you will never be the same, but along the way you'll find yourself good luck

but the real trick, shoot your hot friends

I mean, that's true, but I guess you could become successful and famous at street snapping with the right connections. Just don't mistake it for actual photography.
