visual storyteller
Pictures convey narrative
A visual storyteller is someone who conveys narratives primarily through images rather than words—photographers, filmmakers, graphic novelists, or documentary creators.
The term emphasizes craft and intentionality: not just capturing images, but arranging them to create meaning and emotional resonance.
As a visual storyteller, she lets her photographs speak for the refugees themselves.
