Like others are saying, it depends on country/state law. In the west the general rules are
>>3323630>Can how you take the photo get you in troubleRarely, but it's possible. If you shoot people in/on private property where there's an expectation of privacy you can get in legal trouble if it becomes an issue and they want to take legal action. This is rare but it exists
>Like say you're taking photos from far way using a zoom lens as oppossed to close up, does that matter?No
>Also does the person have to be old enough to consent or something for you to take the photos?You don't need consent unless you're publishing a photo for profit. In that case you'd ideally need consent of anyone in the photo but in most cases if they're in a crowd or whatever it's extremely unlikely to become a legal issue
>Speaking of consent, if you take say an innnocent selfie with the person age doesn't matter if try consent right?Not unless they're naked and sexualised
>I don't think the photos would used in a commercial manner, just for personal use.Then you have no issues
>>3323631>chosis>careerPick one. He ruined any chances (not that he had any to begin with) of a career in photography specifically because of the creepshot and cancer stuff
>>3323635>It strictly depends on where you live. Its much easier in the US than in EuropeUtter nonsense. GDPR has had almost zero effect in any EU country I've visited and America has been one of the hardest places to shoot for decades just because the people are uppity cucked fucks scared of imaginary terrorists everywhere
