When you push the shutter button it opens the shutter which allows light into the camera. The lens focuses the light as it enters the camera and once the light passes through the shutter it is focussed on the sensor (digital camera) or the film plane (film camera).
In a digital camera the sensor is sensitive to light and it converts the light signal into a digital file made up of binary information (zeros and ones), this information is then stored onto the memory card in a picture compatible file format such as jpeg or RAW.
In a film camera the light hits the film plane. Photographic film is light sensitive, it contains silver halide crystals in an emulsion. When light hits the film it causes a chemical change in the silver halide crystals which records the image onto the film. The film is later processed using chemicals to reveal the image.
Photography is the use of a camera to (optically or digitally) capture an image on a photograph.

With a camera
It was a breakthrough because you could show real pictures instead of describing something. Before the invention of the camera the only way to capture real images was through painting. The camera allowed images to be caught without a framed image. A painted image and a photograph are a construct of an image, depending on the creator, but a camera, think of all that could capture: in real time. A camera is there!

Not exactly. The principle of the pinhole and camera obscura were known, but I assume you are referring to the photographic camera, in which case the answer is no. The first photograph would not be taken with a camera until 1816, and the first permanently fixed photograph in 1826.
