Celebrated worldwide on August 19, Photography Day recognizes the importance of this art in preserving memory and creative expression. From amateurs to professionals in the market, the art of capturing moments is constantly evolving and keeping up with technological advancements, benefiting directly from various gadgets and software that make this work easier.
Platforms like AliExpress, the Alibaba International Digital Commerce Group’s e-commerce, bring together a wide range of resources for photography practice, ranging from essential accessories like tripods, portable studios to high-performance equipment like digital cameras and interchangeable lenses.
“Photography goes far beyond just pressing a simple button. There is pre and post-production work that, many times, is even more laborious than the actual capture itself. A dedicated professional needs to be well-equipped to ensure the quality of their work,” says Lucas Ramos, a celebrity events photographer. “But it doesn’t stop there, there are various external factors that impact this work. With the advancement of technologies, one must study a lot and deal with an increasingly competitive market.”
Throughout history, photography has documented events, told stories, and revealed different perspectives on the world, becoming a fundamental tool for culture, communication, and the visual identity of different eras.
