I think if we start a research on photography and islam we will find many opnions against and in favor of photography.
As in my knowledge creation (Takhlique) is haram in islam because there is only one creator (Allah Almighty) and some people link photography with creation but it is your own reflection which is snaped and printed on a paper, if your own reflection is haram then seeing my reflection in miror would also be haram....
and everything has both uses negative and positive it depend upon you..........
