A Photographer's Responsibility

I believe that a photographer's responsibility isn't just to simply shoot a photo and think about how its going to help them, but to see past themselves. A photographer should know when a right time to take a photo is and when it isn't. You should be able to take great photos that will give you a positive feedback rather than a photo of a situation that can make people hate you. I don't believe that other's lives at risk, or human beings is to be put after photography. Always be selfless in as many occasions as you can. It's easy to think about yourself when photographing, but a harder task is living in the moment of the event and putting yourself in their shoes.
How would you feel if someone was taking a picture of you at that exact moment or took a picture of you in your most embarrassing moment? We tend to forget about others when we're not the ones living it. Thats why being a photographer is hard. You have to be able to think about others at that moment you're about to press the button. One photograph can change your entire carrer. One photograph can change your entire person.
