Basically. It's why my bread and butter is family portraits and such. Minimal artistic intent but that's something that people aren't "scolling past" and will actually pay for.
I've had my photos in galleries before and it's the #1 way to get people to pay attention to your photography for more than 5 seconds. Haven't done that since 2020 tho because got uprooted during COVID and haven't found a stable place to live I can build connections to get back into a gallery yet.
Galleries made me almost no money lol.

bitch, the entire fucking world recognizes the meaning of this photo. No photo has been more successful in provoking discussion of a variety of topics than this photo. Discussions about refugees, woman's rights in Afghanistan, feminism in general, war, religion, the rights of those being photographed and the appropriateness of photographing people for commercial exploitation.
And probably one of the closest things to the achievement of the Human Instrumentality Project x Global Consciousness Project in the history of humanity by getting so many people to think about a simultaneous thing at once.
If you don't think that's global recognition of art then you're obtuse as fuck.
And yes, I'm using an obvious af example because sometimes it takes obvious af examples.
