>>4106319>If he catches something transformative during his shoot it is possible for that individual photograph to be art?Everything hints towards it being more than a coincidence, like he prepared the shot in advance.
>>4106320>But being a photographer alone does not make you the artist.You're mistaking the photographer for the camera operator. The photographer is the one directing the photograph. These are often the same person, but you can see the roles separated often in fashion for example. Or Crewdson's tableaux vivants. You don't have to operate the camera to be the photographer. The AC1 on a movie set isn't a photographer either, he's a mere assistant. The DP is the photographer. Pic related, she gave her life doing photography and wasn't operating the camera.
