Who was this male photographer featured in a documentary film?

His iconic photos included a woman in a motel room with a baby lying on a bed, a winter night at an intersection in a small town, and a woman in a room filled with water. Searching on photographer documentaries hasn't produced it yet.

Best answer: Just found it. Gregory Crewdson was the photographer. Mods can delete.

Well, I for one am glad mods haven't deleted it because I wouldn't otherwise have learned about Gregory Crewdson and his stunning photographs. Thank you for bringing him to my attention.

If you're curious, at least some of his small-town photographs were done in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. Crewsdon lives in the area, and my wife used to work at a nearby museum where they exhibited his work from time to time.
