Arbus photographed People's lives, not aiming for perfection in a photo but finding a photo that is interesting to look at. She preferred photographing facial expressions of despair or concern in her photos, having a motto of "you can't help what people know about you".

Q6: What is Richard Billingham's Work about?
Billingham photographed family moments in real time rather than fake posing smiles, showing glimpses of chaos. He took pictures and rather paint them, than actually taking photos, such as his father and his alcoholism, he took pictures as his father would't stay still enough for the actual painting.
Super!!
