Dawn Eagleton: Capturing Authentic Street Portraits with Confidence

Send us a text (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/tex...) In this episode of the SheClicks Women in Photography Podcast, host Angela Nicholson is joined by British street photographer Dawn Eagleton, who has built a strong reputation for her honest and captivating street portraits. Dawn's approach is rooted in connection, authenticity and quiet confidence, making her images not only visually compelling but emotionally resonant. Dawn shares how she first discovered her passion for photographing people candidly in public spaces and how her instincts led her towards a style defined by raw, unposed portraits. Throughout the conversation, she talks about how she overcame the fear of photographing strangers, the subtle cues she uses to read body language and why respectful interaction is often more powerful than asking for permission. As Angela and Dawn explore the challenges and rewards of street portraiture, they also discuss the importance of eye contact, how to capture people in their natural state and how Dawn built up the courage to approach subjects in a calm and open way. Her thoughts on authenticity, presence and emotional awareness offer helpful insights for any photographer looking to work more confidently in public. Later in the episode, Dawn shares the story behind her first self-published book Through the Glass, a collection of portraits taken through windows that reflect both physical distance and emotional proximity. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about street photography, looking to build confidence behind the lens, or interested in photographing people in a more honest and respectful way.
