Permission may be given tacitly too. 

I   (6'4",  20 stone) am quite openly photographing, usually with a short 
focal  length, so I could never be accused of surreptitious shooting.  I 
don't 
ask  permission, instead I consider that my subjects consent by not turning  
away.

(I have done some photo-sniping, though.)
