An image is any visual representation. A photo is one made by a camera. All photos are images, but not all images are photos.

Yes, photos are something captured by a device such as a smartphone but images could be anything from digital art, captured photos and the list goes on.

They are pretty much the same thing, but photos are taken as “photographs” with cameras, and images can be drawings and other things. Where as, photos are more as ‘moments captured during real time’
