About Photo Journalism

• Photojournalism is a particular form of journalism (the collecting, editing, and presenting of news material for publication or broadcast) that creates images in order to tell a news story.
• It is now usually understood to refer only to still images, and in some cases to video used in broadcast journalism or for personal use.
• Photojournalism is distinguished from other close branches of photography (such as documentary photography, street photography or celebrity photography)
