Photography can support memory, but this museum requires restraint and context.

Core photo principles

Follow current onsite photo policy.
Never block pathways in narrow galleries.
Prioritize people-free compositions in reflective spaces.

What to photograph well

Subject type	Why it works
Architectural transitions	Show narrative movement room to room
Documents and signage	Preserve factual anchors
Texture and light	Convey atmosphere without sensationalism

What to avoid

Performative posing in memorial contexts.
Flash where prohibited.
Cropping captions out of documentary exhibits.

A strong museum photo should add understanding, not just aesthetics.
