Urban Photography is similar to street photography in that it takes place in an inner city environment but it differs from street photography in that it may or may not have people included in the image. Urban photos often take buildings, or rather the urban landscape itself as the main subject and if people are included in the picture is it is incidental. Street photography on the other hand takes people as the main subject.

The greatest demand for photographers is in urban areas. If you want to attend photography schools, then be sure to check out urban areas for college. Urban areas offer the most promising career opportunities for young photographers upon graduation. If you do not attend a school in an urban area, you may be disappointed by your career options.
