Documentary photography has its pros and cons which are very essential in telling a story. Missing out on the PACE can take away the elements of your images. Whenever you’re working on a documentary project, you must remember that your images hold the power to convey the depth of your story to the audience, if your images are just basic and random they will not speak meaning.

For a documentary storytelling photograph to be complete in its shooting process the PACE method has to be followed depending on the nature of the story.

P- Portrait: This is you shooting a portrait of your subject in any form to convey the story or exhibiting some of the elements of your story. This could be anything in as much it serves as your subject.

A- Action: Storytelling is very particular about details which helps to drive your point home where text can’t express the full aesthetics of the images.

C- Closeup: This is another detailing part of your storytelling. Taking a closeup of your subject either during the course of an action or just the closeup of their portrait conveys a very strong message to the audience. This helps them relate to what the subject is feeling.

E- Environment: This happens when your story looks into what is peculiar to the subject’s environment or how the surrounding plays a huge role in the subject’s story. This requires you to capture the immediate environment of your subject.

Following PACE method will help you create unique images and will lead to asking resourceful questions that will guide you in capturing the most important part of your story.
