What is Photography?Photography is using a camera to take photographs. Many people are passionate about photography and there are many different styles. Photography has become more advanced over the years and has changed the way we live.

Different styles of photography

There are many different types of photography, and lots of people do it as a profession. Architecture (man-made buildings.. etc.) Fashion (modeling) Portraits (regular headshots or full body) Landscape Nature (includes.. Animals, mountains, etc.)

Types of CamerasThere are many types of cameras. There are some that we don’t use anymore but some we still use. Some cameras we use now are: Polaroid (instant camera) Rangefinder camera SLR (single lense reflex camera) Smart phone camera (iPhone, etc.)Old cameras: Plate camera Box camera Folding camera Large format camera

History of PhotographyHere is some history on photography.Back in 1827 a man named Joseph Niepce made the first photograph. Before that people just used a camera for looking at drawings or for just viewing other things. We use photography all the time today, so what he did made a huge impact.Another thing that happened before photography advanced was that color film for your camera wasn’t available until the 1940’s. Back then, Photographic prints were made using linen rag papers. The first color print didn’t really work because they used organic dyes and then the picture would just fade or disappear. Now we use more advanced technology so the photograph doesn’t fade.
