A photograph doesn't necessarily document the truth, it captures a brief moment in time. (From 2015)
necessarily document the truth, it captures a brief moment in time. What happened in that moment, not to mention before and after it, is always subject to some debate. Nowhere is this more true than in crime scene photography and its role in criminal investigations.Burden of Proof: The Construction of Visual Evidence
Crime photography dates soon after the birth of photography, and Alphonse Bertillon developed the first methodical system for documenting a crime scene in 1903. Bertillon fitted his large format camera with a wide angle lens and placed it on a tripod directly over the body. Then he pasted the high-resolution images on a grid that allowed prosecutors to replicate the scene in court.
But people soon realized a photograph is not, in and of itself, evidence and needed validation by an expert who could interpret what was seen. During World War I, for example, France used aerial photographs to map and document bombing campaigns. But it took some skill to determine viable targets—machine gun nests, bunkers, that sort of thing—from harmless landmarks like tree stumps and caves.
