Fields of Photography
What would street photography be considered as? Is it a whole different field of photography, such as Portrait and Nature photography? Could it be considered Editorial photography? If you have any other information on Street Photography please inform me.

  Lauren,

Street photography can mean different things to different people. For most, it not only defines a subject but also a mindset or approach to shooting. The photos taken that conform to most peoples idea of "street" could be fine art, editorial, documentary, or something else entirely. it's not a genre that's easily pigeon holed.

The best place to start is Google. There's lots to read and see.
