## Resource

A Brazilian documentary photographer working across Latin America and beyond, Adriana Zehbrauskas from the VII Foundation joins Eyeshot 50mm to discuss documentary photography, photojournalism, ethics, trust, AI, migration, Mexico, and her new Eyeshot book “Alma”. In this conversation, she reflects on what it means to photograph real life without staging, manipulation, or excuses. In this episode, we talk about the discipline of newspaper work, why “we do not publish excuses,” the obsession with gear, women in photojournalism, the responsibility of photographing vulnerable communities, and why trust has become even more fragile in the age of AI-generated images. Adriana is also the author of “Alma”, a limited-edition photobook published by Eyeshot, rooted in Mexico and shaped by attention, dignity, and social reality.
