Digital


Taking pictures with a digital camera and storing and printing them on digital devices. The "digital film," which is made up of flash memory modules or recordable CDs (CD-Rs), can be transferred to a local computer for printing, or it can be uploaded to a Web site for viewing and printing.

 

 


Landscape


Landscape comprises the visible features of an area of land, including physical elements such as landforms, living elements of flora and fauna, abstract elements like lighting and weather conditions, and human elements like human activity and the built environment.

 

 


Nature


Nature photography refers to a wide range of photography taken outdoors and devoted to displaying natural elements such as landscapes, wildlife, plants, and close-ups of natural scenes and textures. Nature photography tends to put a stronger emphasis on the aesthetic value of the photo than other photography genres, such as photojournalism and documentary photography.

 

 


Portraits


The goal of portrait photography is to capture the likeness of a person or a small group of people, typically in a flattering manner. Like other types of  portraiture, the focus of photograph is the person's face, although the entire body and the background may be included. Many people enjoy having professionally made family portraits to hang in their homes, or special portraits to commemorate certain events, such as graduations or weddings.

 

 


Sports


The main application of sports photography is for editorial purposes; dedicated sports photographers usually work for newspapers, major wire agencies or dedicated sports magazines. However, sports photography is also used for advertising purposes both to build a brand and as well as a to promote a sport in a way that cannot be accomplished by editorial means.

 

 


Weddings


Wedding photography is the photography of activities relating to weddings. It encompasses photographs of the couple before marriage (for announcements, portrait displays, or thank you cards) as well as coverage of the wedding and reception (sometimes referred to as the wedding breakfast in non-US countries). It is a major commercial endeavor that supports the bulk of the efforts for many photography studios or independent photographers.
