Documentary photography is a relatively new genre in. Without going into a long drawn out explanation that you won't ever read, I will give you a quick rundown. Bullet points are easy to read right?! Here we go... documentary photography is:
-
photography that tells the unique, beautiful story of your family.
-
photography that isn't posed- so basically minimal to no portraits.
-
photography that helps the guys and children in your life relax... no endless poses and directions from the photographer. Just a little gentle prompting here and there if need be.
-
photography that captures the moments of where your family is right now.
-
lots of laughter, movement, fun, and if the occasional tear or tantrum erupts it's okay, because it's true to life. And that's what documentary photography is all about!
