Portraiture

What is the difference between portraiture and photojournalism?

-portraiture is very posed and set up. It is a lie and openly admits it.
-photojournalism is photographing something as it happens, but is also used to bend the truth.

Larry Clark
-Took photos of people/events that represent himself.
-Although people called Clark a photojournalist, his images were
still classified as portraiture.
