# About

 

              ![2024 January 092](https://sean-smith.net/uploads/images/sean/_1500xAUTO_fit_center-center_90_none_ns/2024-January-092.jpg)  I’m Sean Smith, a Toronto-based photography enthusiast. I enjoy all styles of photography, but my focus, pun intended, is street photography. By day I build websites; in spare moments I wander Toronto with a camera, looking for those small, interesting moments that happen in between everything else.

On this site you’ll find a mix of my ongoing projects: street portraits, dogs around the city, transit spaces, and everyday scenes that catch my eye. Some images are quiet and considered; others are completely spontaneous — but they all reflect the way I like to experience Toronto: with curiosity, patience, and a sense of play.

Learn more about my photography approach and this site in my article [Restructuring and a New Focus](https://sean-smith.net/articles/restructuring-and-a-new-focus/).

 

 

  > If you encounter the 'Why are you taking my picture moment?' ... If you're honest about what interests you about them - their appearance or what they may be doing - they will usually be more open to having been photographed.
