Notes on the Photography Film

-Pictures are used to help us remember things

-It helps remember old family members

-You can see other parts of the world and dream about going there

-Sometimes it even saves peoples lives

-Brownie cameras were the first cameras

-They were sold for a dollar so middle and upper class people could afford to have one

-Pictures show history, where we have been and where we are today

-National Geographic Magazine was falling but with photography they are one of the biggest known magazines today

-They introduced color photography and helped people see places around the world that they would never be able to go to

-A couple years after photography was invented people started to ask if photography was an art

-To make it more hands on photographers would scratch the picture when they were developing it to make it look more like a painting

-It helped people see what they believed in

-Photographers and organizations used photography to help stop child labor

-Camera's became the new instrument of art

-Photographers used cameras as a way to show people what was happening in WW1

-They were not aloud to publish pictures of dead U.S. soldiers

-If they were going to publish pictures of dead soldiers they had to be of the opponent

-In the 1900's photo's replaced paintings in homes
