This article presents a set of qualitative methodological tools utilized in a research conducted by listening to young high school students in the city of Rio de Janeiro. Narrative interviews were conducted using photographic devices with a dialogical and reflexive style for the interaction between the interviewers and young interviewees. A discussion group was set up to prospect collective representations of the research´s key topics for which a line of photos was used to cheer the discussion up. Three youths were given a digital photographic camera to take pictures expressing their paths of life. They also made videos which were included in the research movie released in 2018. The photographs taken and interpreted by the young participants allowed to understand processes of subjectivation and interactions taking place in the social contexts of reference, such as those associated with their family life, work, and the school.

Keywords : Youth; Photography; Reflexivity; Narratives; Itineraries.
