What is Documentary Style Photography?
Documentary Style Photography is a specific approach that captures candid moments and authentic emotions.
Unlike traditional posed photography, documentary-style photographers strive to tell stories through their images, focusing on real-life moments as they unfold.
This style is often associated with photojournalism, which similarly prioritizes storytelling and authenticity.
This results in raw, honest images that truly reflect the essence of the moment or event being documented.
Documentary-style photography is focused on storytelling and aims to show and capture the entire narrative.
This includes not only the main subjects but also:
the environment
location
emotions
details of outfits
vibe
movements
mood
By encompassing these elements, documentary-style photographers provide a comprehensive and immersive visual narrative that transports viewers into the heart of the story.
As a documentary-style photographer, I deliver a diverse collection of images that capture the essence of your experience.
That's why I typically provide a larger number of photos—around 90-120—so that every aspect of your story is documented.
My sessions are designed to be fun and easy for both partners, with the goal of capturing your real personalities and genuine interactions. Whether you're naturally playful, romantic, or reserved, I want you to feel comfortable and easy in front of the camera, ensuring that the final photos authentically reflect who you are.
