Summary/Abstract: We try, in the paper, to explain coding visual images by using grounded theory approach and constructed earlier coding families that suits an analysis of this kind of data. We try to use the best inspirations of coding families offered by B. Glaser and separately by J. Corbin and A. Strauss's coding paradigm. We assume that visual data could be used as a legitimate empirical materials to analyse and generate theoretical propositions. It could be combined with others data as a supplementary kind of data or could be used as primary kind of data that are leading in the research as evidences, documents which are ready to theoretical coding and analyses.
