Robin Bowman started a project called It's Complicated: The American Teenager and it showcases stories about random teenagers she comes across. The stories could be as simple as what they want to do with their life in the future or traumatic past experiences or just opinions on certain subjects like marriage, college, etc. I love the stories and how the personalities behind the teenagers are expressed, but I would love it if she posted more than one picture of them. It falls under the category of photojournalism because it showcases every day things and can create a lot of causes. It makes people aware of something not most people pay attention to. It's different from traditional photojournalism because most photojournalism stories are of causes or sports or events or newsworthy things, but these photos aren't exactly like that. They showcase personal stories and opinions of random teenagers on the street and that's the only thing it focuses on instead of a magnitude of different things.
