Highlights Ethical guidelines are needed for participatory research, photography, and social media with youth. Social media and images not only pose risks, but also opportunities, for empowering youth in research. Researchers need to adapt to the digital world where boundaries of private versus public are shifting. Best ethical practice weighs the ratio between vulnerability versus potential empowerment. Engage in continuous dialogue and negotiation to co‐produce ethical practice with youth participants.
