Summary/Abstract: The article present one of the ways in which photographs can be employed in studies on everyday life. The purpose has been to recognize and describe elements of everyday life found in private photographs submitted to analysis. The personal documents method was used because amateur photographs belong to this category of documents. The visual data matrix elaborated by P. Sztompka was applied. The analysis of visual data suggests that the photographs document six contexts of social life (science, work, education, college holidays and celebrations, religion and religious holidays, and finally sports and recreation). Additionally, each context was interpeted from the perspective of the individuals involved, their actions and interactions, communities, culture and the surroundings.
