Some characters who are reporters or photographers use a camera or video cam for work. As well, other characters have photography or filming as a beloved hobby. They'll have the camera gear with them everywhere they go and they'll use it often, usually sticking the lens in the most unwelcome places. They'll take the most inane or arty pictures they can, record videos of everything they see or all of the above (maybe even risk life or limb for the perfect shot).
Something embarrassing happens? They'll snap a shot. Important plot event occurs in front of them? They caught it on video. You can always expect this character to keep their camera handy for any important or non-important moment that may arise, probably becoming uncomfortable without the camera nearby.
Whether for work or for their off-hours enjoyment, these characters love their camera. They probably collect high-end cameras, lenses, flashes and tripods and may be in a camera club. Wealthy characters may do Conspicuous Consumption of the most expensive cameras and some hobbyists may get overly obsessed with their pastime. For camera enthusiasts, Older Is Better. They'll rave about the unsurpassable quality of their 1970s Leica or 1980s Nikon. Filmmakers will praise their 35 mm film camera and insist that it's better than a videocam.
Some camera lovers derive a strange pleasure from secretly watching people and snapping photos of their private life. Sometimes, the love of photographing everything can cross the line into obsession, voyeurism and even harassment (in the case of paparazzi with celebrities or a person following their ex-partner).
On the bright side, they'll provide the scrapbook Montage of happy times near the end of the film or series. As well, with thrillers and murder mysteries, sometimes the photography nerd who's always taking photos happens to take a Convenient Photograph, like a snapshot of the suspect, Bigfoot, or the epic natural disaster. They themselves might get annoyed about being caught on film or having their picture taken. Expect one of the cast to use this to their advantage at some point.
Unlike Going for the Big Scoop, these characters take pictures compulsively and often, while characters Going for the Big Scoop are motivated by getting a good story (they can occasionally overlap). Also, this character isn't necessarily a reporter, photojournalist or artist; there's also amateur photography nerds.
An off-duty Intrepid Reporter tends to fall into this. Sometimes referred to as a shutterbug.
Because this character is often a budding art, film or media student, they are very likely to be an Author Avatar of the production's writer, director, or producer. If they love shooting and editing videos and movies, they may be The Movie Buff.
See also the Japanese Tourist, who will more often than not be one of these, especially in 1980s works. For the darker side of this trope, see The Peeping Tom. Related to Selfie Fiend, which is about someone who loves taking pictures of themselves. If we hear that a character is an amateur shutterbugs who is always snapping photos, their pastime may become a Chekhov's Hobby after a crime has been committed; hearing this, the Great Detective asks for their pictures to look for evidence.

Yoshinori Ikeda, the main person in Yubisaki Milk Tea often takes pictures of himself crossdressing as his alter-ego Yuki. Some of the pictures are used for display by the photographer he works part-time at, while others are for himself as memory, knowing that he won't be crossdressing forever.

Mark from RENT is a documentary filmmaker and films the other characters throughout the story, leading to a touching montage at the end. In "Goodbye Love", his roommate Roger accuses Mark of obsessing over his camera to avoid facing reality. Mark actually does this because he wants to ignore the fact that he's going to outlive Roger, who, among most of the cast in the show, has AIDS.

Jin Sun-Kwon from F.E.A.R. never leaves her camera behind. She may not carry any sort of firearm, but the camera's there. Somewhat justified since she's the team's data analyst, but that wouldn't obligate her to keep her camera throughout Extraction Point, particularly up to the moment of her death. A weird twist is that the unmanned camera continuously snaps shots of her corpse.

Uncharted:
Elena Fisher in Uncharted: Drake's Fortune in the course of the game captures all the important footage for her documentary (for which the network is providing backing for the exploration). Later in the game a predictably rickety Rope Bridge collapses beneath her and Drake's feet, forcing her to free her hand and climb up by letting go of the camera. Camera or your life indeed.
In Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, Chloe Fisher can snap photos of the various scenic locales she finds with her smartphone.

Asteroid in Love has two, and neither of them has anything clean in their intentions:
Mari, the president of the Earth Sciences Club, often sneaks in pictures of the club's activities, much to Mikage's dismay and Moe's excitement. Chapter 16 reveals the Mari and Moe share photography experiences and tips.
Mira's Childhood Friend Moe "Suzu" Suzuya is fond of photographing the cast members at every opportunity. She pays Mira and Ao a modeling fee for the pictures she discreetly took of them while they were working at the Suzuya bakery.

He uses it constantly to try to take pictures of Jupiter-Man. It's Quintin's most prized possession and he immediately rushes off to go find it when he realizes that his mom dragged him home without it.

Velvet Scarlatina, the cute Aussie bunny girl of RWBY, has been revealed as this trope, though she's actually pretty lousy at photography; her picture of Sun captures his abs very well, but completely cuts off his head. Or not. Turns out the camera is her weapon: taking photographs of other characters' weapons (which is what she was actually aiming for with the Sun photo) lets her create Hard Light copies and mimic their fighting styles, though it runs out when she finally unleashes it and she has to take more photographs to "reload", making it Too Awesome to Use.

School Rumble has Akira Takano, whose shutter finger can catch every embarrassing shot she sees, and she has at points manipulated her friends into oddball activities so she can record and make money off of them. Unlike her School News Paper News Hound rival (from his point of view) Takeichi Fuyuki, she actually does catch some of the more impressive photos that he only wishes he could manage. Plus, she is skilled in the use of firearms.

Colin Creevey in Harry Potter. Since he's also a Hero-Worshipper, his first scene consists of him asking Harry for a signed photo, much to his exasperation. His camera eventually saves his life — when he runs into the Basilisk and tries to take a picture, its gaze only petrifies him because he didn't look it directly in the eye.

Marina is extremely embarrassed at first and repeatedly asks the doctor to stop filming her, but changes her mind when she notices her number of social media followers has skyrocketed.

Twoflower and Otto Von Chreik in Discworld. While Otto doesn't constantly take pictures of everything, he still qualifies, because only a Camera Fiend would get a job as a professional photographer when every camera flash has a good chance of killing him (Otto being a vampire), forcing him to rely on someone else to bring him back to life (after which he does it all over again). Eventually, he takes to wearing a small vial of blood around his neck; he takes the shot, turns to ashes, the blood breaks on his ashes and he gets up, cursing.
In Monstrous Regiment he specifically tells Polly that he has replaced his addiction to blood with one for 'the subtle play of light'.

George, sort of, in With Strings Attached. During the New Zork chapter, he acquires a Super-8 movie camera and over a hundred film cartridges, and he spends a good deal of time filming things in C'hou, though he doesn't do much filming in the other two worlds they visit (mostly because circumstances prevent him from doing so). He figures the films will be wonderful proof of this strange thing that's happened to the four and is bitterly disappointed when he finds out he can't take the camera and film back to Earth.

Simon films just about everything on his camera-phone during the first season of Misfits. He doesn't do it so much in season 2, a sign that he is actually starting to engage with people rather than standing around filming them creepily.

In Strawberry Marshmallow, episode 26, Miu decides that now that she has a video camera, she's going to record everything. This includes her morning soup, what happens when you attempt to deprive Nobue of smokes, having Matsuri try to find her glasses when they're on Nobue's face, and finally, seeing for herself if the 11-year-old English-born girl actually is... er... noticeably developed (she is, but as she is only 11, they're still almost nothing). (See also episode 9 for the text equivalent.)

Dorothy Hyatt from The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky. She's a Cute Clumsy Girl who more often than not stumbles into trouble due to her own ditziness. She's also a genius photographer who on several occasions proves instrumental in gathering evidence in unlikely places since she's too caught up in her work to understand that private facilities and shady meetings aren't appropriate places to snap pictures. It's this combination that ironically makes her one of the best reporters in the Liberl News in spite of the trouble she causes.

Life Is Strange:
The Player Character, Max Caulfield, always carries her old-school Polaroid camera with her. Not surprising, given that she is a photography student.
Max does it in part to emulate her teacher, Mark Jefferson, who provides the page quote. As a very famous photographer, he teaches all that he knows at Blackwell Academy, tells his students to “always take the shot”, and is partly responsible for fostering Max's habits. He is also quite the literal fiend who takes the trope to disturbing levels, as he is the Big Bad drugging and kidnapping girls to take them to his Dark Room, where he photographs them in bondage and sexualized positions and tortures them, all to capture the moment where innocence becomes corrupted.

Yuri!!! on Ice:
Phichit Chulanont loves to take pictures and videos of his daily life and upload them to social media sites, and he almost always has his phone on hand to take selfies. His friends Guang-Hong Ji and Leo de la Iglesia are like this to a lesser extent as well.
The Nishigori triplets are usually eager to take pictures and videos of their favorite figure skaters, which is what leads them to record and upload a video of Yuri Katsuki performing Victor Nikiforov's program to the internet; the video going viral is what kicks off the plot.

Pokémon: The Series:
Todd Snap from the original series, who was first introduced in the anime, would later be the main character of the spinoff game Pokémon Snap.
Trip, Ash's main rival in Black and White, is usually seen with his own camera. He explained in his first appearance that he's keeping a scrapbook of his journey. We also have a One-Shot Character named Robert from the episode "The Four Seasons of Sawsbuck!" who has the same profession and Japanese voice actor as Todd Snap above.

K-On!:
In the anime, Mio and Ritsu are downplayed examples. They both share two aspects of the trope; Mio usually snaps shots of the proverbial "Kodak moments" while Ritsu focuses on taking the more embarrassing or invasive pictures; essentially they play double-duty providing most of the scrap-book shots throughout the series. One odd contrast is that Mio uses film while Ritsu is primarily digital.
The manga's final chapter has Yui sparring some of her meager extra cash on a high-end camera to take pictures of the band, particularly of Mio while she was sleeping (and presumably Ritsu and Mugi as well). This is later revealed to have been the basis for a set of T-shirts they would wear on stage, which Yui had Sawako design using their silhouettes. Ritsu meanwhile worried about what Sawako would do with the pictures now that the shirts were finished and sent.

The Pale Beyond: Kasha, the Temperence's photographer, hardly goes anywhere without her camera. She uses it to constantly document the going-ons of the crew, even during crises. Kasha states she believes that photographic evidence is the only way people will believe what's happened during the journey. When she accidentally drops her camera off a cliff, Kasha goes to lengths to save it, potentially costing her life.

Ace Attorney:
Lotta Hart, the Intrepid Reporter introduced in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. It especially shows in Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth 2: whenever she's accompanying you, she's endlessly taking photos of everything in sight.
Also from Investigations 2 is attorney Raymond Shields. As soon as he enters the Winter Palace of Jeffrey Masters' mansion, his first response is to take as many pictures as possible, even one of Edgeworth without his consent.
Cody Hackins of the first game falls into this category. He refuses to testify unless he is allowed to bring his camera into the courtroom.

Kazumi Asakura of Negima! Magister Negi Magi likes to use her Wacky Class' antics to her advantage whenever she can, or otherwise obsessing in some way about Going for the Big Scoop. Her class panics when being attacked by a ghost? She pulls out her camera immediately. At the end of the trip to Kyoto, she's taking pictures of her classmates in the Hot Springs, including Mana Tatsumiya who in the picture is shown to be hiding a gun under a bucket and is seconds away from shooting Kazumi.

Elena Fisher in Uncharted: Drake's Fortune in the course of the game captures all the important footage for her documentary (for which the network is providing backing for the exploration). Later in the game a predictably rickety Rope Bridge collapses beneath her and Drake's feet, forcing her to free her hand and climb up by letting go of the camera. Camera or your life indeed.

Cloverfield: Hud keeps his camera running throughout the night as the characters attempt to flee Manhattan. When one of the others asks why he's still filming Hud replies that people are going to want to see what it was like to be on the ground. The DVD extras reveal that he was awarded a posthumous Medal of Honor for producing such a complete record of the event.

Kamen Rider Decade is somewhat obsessed with (and terribad at) capturing the world on photographs.
Though Tsukasa's normal pictures tend to be blurry and distorted, they also reveal the true nature of the subjects he photographs; for example, a picture taken of a girl with a missing brother shows a ghost image of said brother watching over her.
