Get your cameras ready to celebrate National Camera Day on June 29! This day was created to honor the invention of the camera and its importance in capturing memories. The first photograph is believed to have been taken by Joseph Nicéphore Niépce in 1814, which kickstarted a whole new art form that continues today. Cameras are now more advanced than ever with digital photography, so let's take this opportunity to embrace our creativity and capture some amazing shots!
