How to contact a Google Street View Local Guide?

Google Maps tips & tricks
1

So, if I find a Photosphere on Google Street View, which has been uploaded by a Local Guide - how am I able to contact this person?

I can see the username of the person who uploaded the photosphere - and I can click on it, so I can see his other contributions and reviews and his rank and his points and everything - but I don’t see any possibility to contact the person?

I have heard it should be possible somehow on Local Guides Connect - with private messages - but I couldn’t figure it out yet. All the Local Guides from Google Streetview, whom I’d like to contact, I can’t find on Local Guides Connect with the name that’s showing together with their photo…

Any help?

Hi @pet-bar , welcome in Connect.

For everyone’s privacy, Google do not share this kind of information.

BTW, if the Photographer is selling Street View photos, you may search on the list of Street View Trusted Photographers on your area

Please edit your post, for removing the screenshot.

Thank you

Keep in mind that what @ErmesT advice is the only way to find and hire a Trusted Photographer, that is why I will mark his reply as a solution.
