Photographers mostly take still images while Cameramen or Camera Operators generally capture video footage, although some Photographers will also take videos at the request of their client or employer. Photographers are expected to have an artistic vision that they use to complete projects, while Cameramen are usually under the direct supervision of a Director or Videographer who gives them instructions on where to position their camera, what shots to capture and what camera techniques to implement. Photographers may work independently and take freelance clients, unlike a Cameraman who is usually part of a film team.
