Photojournalism

Journalism that documents current events with the use of a camera. Before television became the primary source of news, the 1930s through the 1950s were considered the "golden age" of photojournalism. Despite the fact that television has since taken over as the primary source of news, photojournalist continues to play an essential part in the media.
