Women street photographers you should follow on the web
Introduction
Dear Streethunters.net Readers,
3 years ago, we wrote a blog post called 25 Inspirational Ladies of Street Photography. A lot has changed in the street photography scene since then, so we feel itās time for a new, updated, larger list dedicated to women street photographers.
In an attempt to promote more active women street photographers, (i.e. photographers who actually take street photos during the time of writing) Streethunters.net explored the web in search of ladies who like shooting in the streets and share some, most, or all of their street photos online. Not all of them are strictly street photographers. Some of them shoot street on their spare time, others even less than that, but all of them have photos worth sharing and that is why they ended up on this list.
Before we present you with a roll call of these ladies, we kindly ask you to send in any names of female street photographers you know and would like to see in this list. But that is enough for an introduction, letās go and meet the women street photographers you should follow on the web.

Hello Frank!
Thank you for your comment and your suggestion š
This is a thrilling and inspiring selection of street photographers. Thank you. I hope to be included in this list some day.
Hello Maria!
I am looking at your work as I am typing these words. Loving what I am seeing!
I will be adding you to the list once I get some free time on my hands. Thank you so much for reaching out. It is impossible to find everyone just by using Google and my personal resources š
Stay Sharp & Keep Shooting!
Thank you, Spyros. I would be honoured to be included!
You should check on Maria Spyropoulou!
Thank you for the suggestion Sofia. I will definitely check her work out!
That’s a fresh list for me, Spyros. My own list would include:
Imogen Cunningham – https://www.imogencunningham.com/
Grace Robertson – http://www.britishphotography.org/artists/19156/statement/grace-robertson
Helen Levitt – https://www.lensculture.com/articles/helen-levitt-helen-levitt-new-york-streets-1938-to-1990s
Genevieve Hafner – http://www.genevievehafner.com/
And not to forget Eve Arnold and Vivian Maier. One current young female street photographer worth praising and even learning from is Ami Strachan. She has the bug, the eye, and the enthusiasm to become one our great young British street photographers. Here’s her website. Do have a look: http://blackandwhitestreet.com/user/3038
Keith hello. Always a pleasure to read your comments. The list we have made is for active women street photographers, that are producing work at the moment and that is why we have left out shooters such as Vivian Mayer, Mary Helen Mark, etc. We are interested in promoting contemporary shooters so we can give them the exposure they deserve. I will be giving Genevieve Hafner and Ami Strachan a closer look by the way. Their work looks very interesting! I have much respect for Robertson, but she has retired.
Stay Sharp & Keep Shooting!
Gorgeous list! I would like to submit my own street work, Beach Lovers @beachloversphotography and @ericareadeimages

Go ladies, go!
The list of female Streets Photographers will be longer and that is very enjoyable!
Thank you Spyros Papaspyropoulos, you have not forgotten the female front š
For us is the street photography not an intermediate phase but a real passion and despite some claims NOT DEAD!
Hello Georgie!
Thank you very much for your comment. I am very happy you like the list!
Street photography is a way of life and it can’t die away. I agree with you.

There are some really great women street photographers, past and present. It’s not about gender is it, but about how good an eye one has for drama. My own personal favourites include: Fatima Abbadi, Fay Godwin, and Grace Robertson, but I love them all and especially those in your list.
I appreciate your list. I would like to be added to it. I would like to add another woman . Thank you for your work !
