Abstract
Press photography is a way to communicate ideas and messages to audiencesduring different social situations and rallies are no exception. The problem here is that takingphotos of such political issues and selecting them to be included in the article is a difficult andcomplicated process. Choosing shot angle and distance, selecting important subjects to focus onwhile taking photos and choosing several photos among many for publication is a subjectivematter for photojournalists, journalists and editors. This article presents an analysis of pressphotography during unauthorized rally in Kazakhstan using a model of visual framing analysis.Although we don’t analyze audience perception and impact of press photos to how peopleconsume the news, we argue that there is visual framing in press photography which can affectnews consumption and that photo cameras which are supposed to show only truth can distortthe reflection of reality presented by journalists.
