This is a list of notable street photographers. Street photography is photography conducted for art or enquiry that presents unmediated chance encounters and random incidents[1] within public places. Street photography does not need the backdrop of a street or even an urban environment. Though people are usually present, street photography may lack people and can be of an object or environment where the image projects a decidedly human character in facsimile or aesthetic.[2]
