One of Rangefinder’s 30 Rising Stars, Alan’s talk will be full of tips and advice on technique, dynamic composition, how it’ll enable you to anticipate moments better and more (including help on overcoming any anxiety of encroaching on people’s personal space (and, perhaps most importantly, how to not get punched when doing so).
