    The document discusses ethical issues with photographs taken for a prenuptial photoshoot in a poor community. Specifically: - Photographing children without parental consent is unethical. - The photoshoot disturbed local businesses and created a commotion, violating the community's peace. - The photos only showed stereotypical images of poverty like markets, trash, and poor families, oversharing the community's culture and privacy. - Choosing this location for a prenuptial shoot seemed to take advantage of the community for aesthetic purposes rather than helping them. As the photographer, they should have advised clients on proper ethical conduct.

     Do you think the images have shown ethical violations? Why or why not?

    I think these images show a lot of ethical violations because first, there are children in the background
    even if you ask permission to take pictures within the community you still shouldn’t involve kids in your
    photography especially if there’s no permission from the parents or guardian. I think this is also self-
    promotion because who or what kind of people will go to take a prenup like what shows in the pictures?
    What can you get in this kind of prenup? So that people will think that you are concerned about the
    community that you went to? So, in order to help them you guys took a pictorial of their community and
    showed all of the people how needful their community is? Or just because of the vibe of what the
    community can give to your pictures? Also, it shows in the first two pictures above that they shoot in
    some kind of market or some busy place, as a photographer you should know that one of the ethical
    things that a photographer should do is not disturb their business but the pictures above show that
    many businesses have been disturbed because the photo shoot creates a commotion in the middle of
    the busy street. The pictures above also show stereotyping because they only show some parts of poor
    places in that community like the market, the trash behind them, those kids, and the mother and baby
    behind them, and those pictures that they shoot show how poor the community is. For me, I don’t get
    the idea of having a prenup picture in this kind of area they are invading people’s culture, peace, and
    life. They overshare the culture of the people in that community, exposing too much privacy to the
    people who are living there. As a photographer, even though the client gives the idea of having a prenup
    in that kind of community you must enlighten them that there are various things that they need to
    follow since the location that they chose is a little bit off.
