That moment shouldn't be awkward if you have a legitimate reason for taking that photo.

And if you really need to record the document for other reasons (like whistleblowing), you can record a video...

Awkward isn't the right word here. It's a distraction or annoyance.

Think of for example quiet libraries with a bunch of students quietly studying. They do not like other people making noise, however legitimate the reason is.

Video recording also has a mandated start/stop sound, FWIW.
