Interview with Oliver Lang, Street Photographer & Co-founder of the Mobile Photo Group (MPG)

“I believe that, more than ever before, photography is about a community and a culture, rather than the camera.”Â – Oliver Lang

I had the chance to interview Oliver Lang, one of the founding members of the Mobile Photo Group. Oliver shoots street photography in the sun-drenched streets of Sydney with his iPhone, using the Pro CameraÂ application and capturing phenomenal light and moments in his images. He makes it a point to shoot every single day and even post-processes his images in the iPhone with the Snapseed application.

Make sure to follow him on Twitter @oggsie,Â on Flickr, and follow him on InstagramÂ @oggsie.

10 Tips How to Master Street Photography with the iPhone

I have been using the iPhone since I moved to Melbourne, Australia in February this year. Â The iPhone lets me concentrate on scene and structure instead of dials and lenses.Â I feel more connected to the process because there is no glass in the way.

Eric has asked me to share some hints to help make the most of the iPhone when shooting the street.Â So here we go.
