Context; Photo-journalism (a form of journalism) is a way in which a story is made from an image. The truth behind photojournalim is not what people are led to believe or think as photographs nowadays are edited and altered to create a better image.
Photo-journalism to me, means a way in which things are not acted out and planned out, its a way in which things come natually when you wait for the moment in which changes a whole image and being in the right place at the right time.
For example, Henri Cartier-Bresson (August 1908), was a very well known French photographer, who considered himself as the godfather of photojournalism. He influenced and inspired many other photographers to be Photojournalists.
''The truth is the best picture, the best propganda''.
ROBERT CAPA (war photographer)
Robert Capa (left) is one of the main war photographers. He mainly covered the Spanish Civil War, Japanese War and World War 2 .
Another example of a war photographer is Tony Vaccaro. He was a soilder in world war 2 1944-1945. However, his photographs were different from robert Capa's as he thought that war was romatic, whereas, Vaccaro thought war as a disgraceful disadvantage of being human.
