Is street photography different in Brazil?

In some aspects it is. Because, by definition, street photography means remaining unseen. But you can also get in touch with people. It's a good exercise! And it's very hard not to get in touch with Brazilians. It is in the DNA of Brazilians to communicate and interact.

Therefore, the street photographer in Brazil always walks a fine line between interaction with his subjects and mere observation.

Basically, one must also always discipline oneself not to portray the country one-sidedly in stereotypes.

In this context, it seems very advisable not to focus on the main tourist sights - they are really overexposed. 

Without a doubt, Brazil is one of the best countries in the world to reinvent street photography in all its facets. The portfolio StreetPhotography_BraZil tries to capture emblematic impressions and moments that reflect the widest possible range of the nation. Therefore, this photographic journey will not come to an end point.
