Celebrity Photography

As a subset of photojournalism, celebrity photography focuses on taking pictures of newsworthy and prominent individuals. However, this type of photography isn’t only exclusive to taking photos of actors and actresses. It also covers any high-profile people from other fields, including in the art scene, sports, and politics. Celebrity photographers take photos during public and private events, photoshoots, and portrait sessions. They also take opportunities for candid moments, famously known as paparazzi photography. In the old times, you can only find photos of celebrities in magazines and newspapers. But with the rise of the Internet, people can easily access celebrity photos via social media, news pages, and entertainment websites.
