Know when to back off. It’s all well and good to quote case law and scream about your rights (and believe me, I’ve seen plenty of photographers whip out these old chestnuts,) but at some point it’s not going to be enough and you’ll be faced with having to either keep shooting knowing you face arrest, or to back off and reassess from another angle. Understand that if you’re arrested, you’re not going to get your photos out. In the event that you are arrested, make sure you’ve got a complete list of your gear and their serial numbers, and carry enough cash to post bail.
