Street Classics Launch
Welcome to the Street Classics Community!
Hey there!
Whether you’re a follower of our Instagram account or a street photography fan that just stumbled upon this by chance, we want to welcome you to our website & blog! The Street Classics team Ben (@itchban), Dave (@_davidsark) & Mario (@borneon.lad) are grateful for your enthusiasm and continual support on @street.classics. We're glad and humbled that to have to opportunity to connect with so many of you throughout the world.
We've been working hard at building out this website to help connect our growing street community. We believe our brand and community can extend beyond just Instagram and this blog is the first step in doing so. To celebrate our launch we've created a street film. Check it out:

So what’s it all about?
Over the last 6 months or so we have been blown away by the interest that has been shown in the amazing moments we feature. We kickstarted the Street Classics account only in August 2017 and already it's grown to over 34,000 followers. For a while now we have felt that we want to do more in terms of expanding the Street Classics community and diving deeper into what we really love about street photography.
There’s only so much we can do with Instagram and as such we think an expanded blog will help to explore everything related to street photography in much greater detail. We’re talking expanded photographer features, stories, info for gear nuts, history, techniques, things we like, tutorials & workshops and maybe even something educational! It's all new and nothing is chiselled in stone yet but we hope to grow and evolve things over time.
It’s just the beginning of something we hope will be special and we would love it if you would come along for the ride.
