Documentary & Narrative

The methods of conveying messages using photographs do not always have to be as obvious as those often used in advertising or journalism. Most contemporary documentary photographers do not deal with singular images in the same way that photojournalists do, but are more likely to present people, stories, situations and places using a series of images. Working with a set or sequence of images in a book for example, can allow for a narrative to unfold gradually and more subtly, often requiring an element of consideration from the viewer of the work, and perhaps allowing the viewer to form their own opinions and draw their own conclusions about what the work really communicates.
