163. Capturing Life as It Is: The Art of Documentary Photography with Gøril Sætre

Documentary photography is about capturing life as it truly unfolds—unscripted, unpolished, and beautifully authentic. It’s a storytelling approach that focuses on real emotions, genuine connections, and the raw beauty of everyday moments.
