Photographic work can be divided into many categories and sub-categories. Common types of photography include aerial, astrophotography, black and white, camera phone, commercial, documentary, event, macro, modeling, nature, people, satellite, sports, and underwater photography. Photojournalism is a particular form of journalism that uses images to tell news stories, and distinguishes itself from other types of photography by qualities like immediacy, newsworthiness, and objectivity. A photojournalist is a visual reporter who aims to capture the truth and tell stories through images.

79. Photojournalism can be found in every form of modern media. Often called "documentary photography," these photographs offer a form of news that lets the public experience the event visually. It offers a more tangible look at these events that can be understood by anyone, no matter the age or literary skill. Migrant Mother What is a photojournalist? A journalist tells stories. A photographer takes pictures of nouns (people, places and things). A photojournalist takes the best of both and locks it into the most powerful medium available - frozen images. Florence Leona Christie (Dorothea Lange )1936.

80. More on the photojournalist A photojournalist is a visual reporter of facts. The public places trust in its reporters to tell the truth. The same trust is extended to photojournalists as visual reporters. This responsibility is paramount to a photojournalist. At all times, we have many thousands of people seeing through our eyes and expecting to see the truth. Most people immediately understand an image. In today's world of grocery store tabloids and digital manipulation of images, the photojournalist must still tell the truth. The photojournalist constantly hunts for the images (or verbs), which tell of the day-to-day struggles and accomplishments of his community. These occurrences happen naturally. There is no need to "set up" reality. There is no need to lie to a community that bestows its trust. In a nutshell: If a photojournalist isn't going to fake a fire or a street stabbing scene, why would he set up "person A" giving "person B" an object (award, check, trophy etc.)? The photojournalist simply wants to hang around, be forgotten and wait for the right moment. Then, the hunt begins anew. Like the police officer or firefighter, the photojournalist's concern is his community even if that means sacrificing comfort or life. Many photojournalists die every year in the process of collecting visual information, which lets the public know of atrocities, dangers and the mundane.
