Documentary photography usually
refers to a type of
 
professional
photojournalism, but it may also be an amateur or student pursuit. The
photographer attempts to produce truthful, objective, and usually candid
photography of a particular subject, most often pictures of people. The
pictures usually depict a certain perspective of the photographer.
Usually such photographs are meant for publication, but are sometimes only
for exhibition in an art gallery or other public forum. Sometimes an
organization or company will commission documentary photography of its
activities, but the pictures will only be for its private archives.
If the aim is simply to document something - costume for instance -
then sometimes posing people is the best way to make the required clear
documentary picture. For instance, the posed "straight up" style of
picture pioneered by iD magazine - these were of punks and New Wave youth
found on English streets and simply asked to stand against any nearby
blank wall. The resulting pictures - the subjects facing the camera and
seen from "top to toe" - are a vivid historical documentary photography
archive, and have established the posed "straight up" as a valid style of
documentary picture-making. |
