Ethics of Photography: Conversation w/ Visitor Records

What purpose do artists serve in today’s world? What about our photos?

Should YOU take more candid photos of your family?

Do your kids really want to see thousand photos of them alone in a frame, giving a fake smile and no context of their story? What kind of photos do they ACTUALLY want to have from their one and only childhood?

What makes for a lasting photo?

How do we keep our kids safe in the rapidly changing online world? What photos should be kept private?


So many meaningful and deep topics explored here and you truly do not want to miss this conversation with Visitor Records. Available on all major platforms.

Visitor Records on Ethics in Photography -Documentary Family Storytelling, Consent & Protecting Children Online

What does it really mean to capture someone’s life through a lens?

In this episode, we sit down with photographer Sara Stanković to explore the deeper questions behind photography — from the difference between documentary and lifestyle photography to the responsibility that comes with telling someone else’s story.

Our conversation moves beyond the surface as we discuss consent, especially when it comes to children, and the importance of protecting privacy in an age where everything can be shared. Drawing from Sara & Lex’s backgrounds working with CSEC and trafficked persons, we reflect on how those experiences have shaped our perspectives on image-making, ethics, and human dignity.

In this dialogue, we also explore the role of the artist in society — how creatives have historically challenged cultural norms and how that tension shows up in today’s world.

Join us for a thoughtful and nuanced conversation about storytelling, responsibility, and what it means to create with care.
