Documentary Photography

Documentary photography is a form of photographing significant or historical events. It can also be known as photojournalism.
The photographer attempts to capture an objective view and a fresh perspective on events happening, usually relating to people and society that surrounds them.

Here is a significantly useful website, its a journey of a photographer who presents his work with detail, analysing his work and revealing interesting statements into his concepts and reasoning behind the photographs. It gives examples of how documentary photography is pieced together and other useful influences which could link to this type of photography.
