Street Photography in Paris: See the World, See Yourself

There’s a certain alchemy that happens when you walk the streets of Paris with a camera.

It’s not just about making photographs—it’s about learning to see, to notice, to be present.

Street photography is a practice in curiosity. It’s a way of saying yes to the world as it is, in all its unpredictability and beauty.

I’m Keith Pitts. I believe the real subject of street photography isn’t the street—it’s you.

Join me for five days in Paris, and let’s see what happens when you open yourself to the city, to the moment, and to yourself.

“Keith is amazingly open in regards to his work and I highly recommend to anyone who is ready to go to the next level of their work, to reach out to him & attend one of his workshops. Keith’s workshop teaches you to let go. To wait. To look at the world from a different perspective. ..showing me some of his tips & tricks (that I still find mind blowing). ”

This workshop is for anyone who senses there’s more to photography—and to travel—than just ticking off sights or chasing perfect images.

It’s for the curious: professionals craving a creative reset, artists seeking new inspiration, and anyone who wants to see the world (and themselves) with fresh eyes. You don’t need to call yourself a photographer. You just need to be open—to wandering, to noticing, to letting the city and its moments surprise you.

You’ll find yourself among a group of thoughtful, open-minded people who share your interest in stories, in people, and in the art of paying attention. Together, we’ll explore Paris—not as tourists, but as seekers—documenting, laughing, dining, and learning as we go.

You don’t need to be an expert. All cameras and backgrounds are welcome. What matters most is your willingness to slow down, to pay attention, and to discover what happens when you let go of expectations.

Whether this is a long-awaited treat or a spontaneous adventure, you belong here. The street is for everyone willing to look.

If you’re ready for more than just photographs—if you want to return home with new friends, new ways of seeing, and maybe even a new sense of yourself—this is for you.

The main goal of my street photography workshops is simple: to help you see the world with fresh eyes and create photographs that tell honest, compelling stories of people and place. Along the way, you’ll sharpen your skills, but more importantly, you’ll learn to notice, to connect, and to discover something new about yourself—one frame, one moment at a time.

About Keith:

I can’t remember a time when I didn’t have a camera close by. My first was a Pentax MX, bought with money I scraped together as a teenager. That camera followed me through high school, the Navy, and college. I was supposed to become a doctor, but somewhere along the way, photography became less of a hobby and more of a calling. I left college with one class to go before the MCAT, and never looked back.

Over the years, I’ve photographed just about everything—portraits, weddings, the everyday and the extraordinary. But it’s on the street, camera in hand, that I feel most at home. For me, street photography is more than a genre; it’s a form of visual anthropology. It’s about observing, listening, and documenting the subtle stories unfolding all around us. Every walk is a chance to study humanity, to notice the poetry in the ordinary, and to ask questions about the world and my place in it.

Street photography is also a mirror. The more I practice, the more I discover about myself—how I see, what I’m drawn to, what I overlook. It’s a practice in presence, curiosity, and sometimes, letting go of control. The city is always changing, and so am I.

Now, I call Paris home. I teach workshops not because I have all the answers, but because I love sharing the process of discovery. For me, it’s the questions that are interesting—the ones we ask about the world, about people, and about ourselves. If you’re curious, if you find meaning in the act of looking and wondering, I’d love to walk these streets with you.

“This street photography workshop helped me level up my composition and vision. The feedback from each shoot is really constructive and helped me see things I wasn’t able to see before. And last but not least, the patience and kindness of Keith helped me take photos I couldn’t even imagine before in this awesome location of Paris.”
