Steve -

So your wonderful OR photos or Tinas photos are all what?

  Eugene Smith?  James Nachtewey? They all work with the consent of 
the photographed.

  You can do documentary photography with the consent and permission 
of the photographed without only having to do posed portraiture. Is 
that such a hard concept to comprehend?
