Bulk load some remjet backed film into normal canisters and send it to them anonymously.

Got a 4x5 camera for a project I had in mind and I haven't shot a single image of what I wanted cuz I'm so scared they will all be looking at me with my fucking tripod in front of their establishments taking pictures. What to do /fgt/

yeah for c41 at least I trust the old asian lady down the block that has been running her lab since at least the days when people thought aps might take off over myself with a sous vide machine. I do scan my negs at home and keep them well stored however because I would love to get into darkroom work at some point.

if you have some solid prints or a photobooklet or something bring them with you to show/give to any wary store owners when you explain you're working on a new project. when I go night shooting now I tend to bring a copy or two of my mannequin zine I made so if someone asks me wtf i'm doing I can show them that I'm at only a weirdo out late with a camera and nothing more.

also, i'd be more concerned with passersby interrupting the setup/shot than the owners, if you're on a public street/sidewalk giving you some side eye is probably the worst they can do.

Being selective is not a bad thing. It is a good thing.
I usually only take one or two photographs per day as well.

I've seen people say to run an alarm that goes off every 30 minutes or so. When it goes off immediately stop and compose and take a picture. Maybe a bit much but if you need forced motivation it can work.

This also. You may find that if you rapid fire shoot you aren't thinking and all your pictures suck ass.
