i .Nature Photography

a. Landscape

Landscape photography is another way of saying scenic or environmental photography. It involves taking pictures of a natural scene – often large and grand, but sometimes smaller and more intimate – in a way that brings the viewer into a scene. Landscape photography is one of the most popular types today, spinning off several sub-genres such as storm photography, seascapes, and so on. With a broader definition, it also includes “urban landscape” photography and manmade scenes.

b. Wildlife
Wildlife photography can bring out some of the most intense photographers you’ll meet – people who might spend hours on end waiting for an animal to wander into the perfect spot, or search for creatures that most people would rather try to avoid. But it’s also something you can practice in your own backyard, or a short drive from where you live, since there are animals to be found everywhere. From time to time, you’ll see a photo series of urban wildlife that rivals the best images captured in more remote locations.

c. Macro

One of the most accessible types of photography is macro, the art of capturing small creatures and objects that we ordinarily overlook. Macro photography is usually associated with images of bugs and flowers, but even subjects like snowflakes or water droplets in the studio can make for amazing macro photos. A related style of photography is simply “close-up” photography, which might not be as magnified as true macro work, but still isolates a small slice of the world that otherwise may not stand out.

Few more Nature Photography Categories are :-
Underwater
Astrophotography
Aerial Photography
Scientific

ii. People Photography

a. Portraits
The broadest type of people photography is portraiture, covering everything from family portraits to fine-art photography and commercial work. Often, the goal of portraiture is to show the character of a subject – to capture the person’s personality and emotion in an image.

b. Street Photography
Street photography is about capturing slices of life that happen in common areas in a city, such as parks and sidewalks. Good street photos find meaning and purpose in seemingly ordinary moments or interactions, making viewers think about something they would otherwise pass by.

c. Fashion
A cousin of portraiture, but distinct enough to count as its own genre, is fashion photography. This is a fast-paced world, and the best fashion photographers are intimately knowledgeable not just about lighting and photography but also the clothing styles they’re photographing.

d. Event Photography
Aside from weddings, there are broader classes of events that deserve recognition as a separate genre of photography.

e. Travel
One of the broadest types of people photography is travel – photographing life in another area of the world, whether portraits or candid images. Good travel photography captures the striking similarities and differences among people across the world, making us feel more connected and aware of how other people live.

Some other popular People photography are :-
Pet Photography
Documentary
Sports

iii. Manmade Objects

a. Product Photography

Another branch of commercial photography is product photography, where you are typically shooting in a studio with careful lighting to accentuate the product in question (though sometimes outdoors or on location)

b. Food Photography
Food photography has experienced a remarkable growth in popularity in recent years thanks to social media. Previously, it was essentially a sub-genre of commercial work – advertisements, cookbooks, menus, and so on – but it’s becoming more a part of documentary photography today.

c. Architecture
The last type of photography in this list is also one of the most popular: architectural photography, including cityscapes and other details of buildings and construction
