10 Street Photographers EVERY Photographer MUST Know

Street photography combines the improvisational act of capturing life as hit happens combined with the nostalgia and visual aesthetic that's like no other style of photography. I haven't done one of these kinds of videos in a while so I thought it would be fun to do an overview of who I feel the essentials are for me.
Henri Cartier-Bresson, W. Eugene Smith, Robert Frank and Saul Leiter are all probably names you know. But how about Charles Nègre, Kamoinge, Ted Cronner, Louis Farurer?

I'm glad it's not another gear review of stuff I can't afford. More of this type of content please.
-
I like these types of videos when you talk about artists. I know it probably doesn’t get as many views as gear reviews but you do such a good job at sharing knowledge. Thanks!
-
Welcome back.... Glad to see photographers and photographs being discussed again.. 👏
-
More like this! Inspires me to just get out there instead of having GAS over the newest piece of technology. The new tech will not necessarily improve my images.
-
This is the Ted Forbes that I like 😀
-
Daido Moriyama is my current favorite
-
I didn't know about Charles Négre. MY GOD, i love that work. And to think he did it as a way to gather material for his paintings.
-
was really hoping to see some Fan Ho, but I love the mention of Gordon Parks
-
Thanks Ted, not just for this video but also for introducing me to even more influential photographers. This is the kind of video that got me interested in your channel six years ago. Cheers from Australia Steve
-
Can I just say thanks for all the time you've put into teaching us about the history of photography and technique in general. Not enough channels do this. Thank you sir, bless your heart. 🙏

Hey Ted, fellow fort worth'er here hoping your having a good rainy evening. Your channel has been the introduction to many photographic styles and photographers that have since become huge inspirations for me over the years. I haven't seen Ted Cronners work before and WOW! Thank you for all the great content and discussions here.
-
Mr Forbes, I love these videos. Going 'old school' AOP is definitely appreciated!
-
I really love your channel! It talks about artist and about the love of photography! You are focusing on what 's important! It's so refreshing to hear about artists in a medium such as youtube where the algorithm pushes everyone to create content about gear - gear - gear.
-
I've been watching and appreciating your photo lit series for several years now. I feel like they're a lot better than the classes I took in college back in the '90s. Thank you!
-
I highly approve this list and would like to include 20 ppl more :D Ah the good old days with some education and history lessons from Ted :)
-
That's a great, and inspiring list of street photographers. We can learn so much from them... If there was an eleventh pick, I'd certainly include Vivian Maier.
-
Love these kinds of videos ! That's what initially got me into your channel wayyy back when you were doing the composition series. Those videos even helped me in my architecture career! ☺️
-
I love when you do photo history videos! Like you say there are so many good street photographers out there. All the more reason to do a continuation of this video.
-
Ted, thank you for for this video, so well done. Themes like this are why I subscribed to your channel. Lots of guys are doing gear posts but no one that I have found creates insightful videos on The Art of Photography the way you do , Please Keep em coming!

Wonderful to see you back doing what you are great at !!
