A documentary approach is an alternative, intimate way for viewers to connect with the stories ingrained within spaces. Beyond technical accuracy, a documentary approach uses little to no staging or manipulation providing a candid, cinematic view that conveys the emotions held within interior and architectural spaces, particularly homes. This approach creates context by capturing intricate details like textures, the play of light and shadow, and how people interact with the space.
