The first impact of photographs affecting US history came during the US Civil War. The war scene photos taken by Matthew Brady displayed to Northerners and Southerners the death and destruction the US Civil War created.

Yes, in fact at this time the American Civil War (1861 to 1865) is considered the first major conflict to be extensively photographed. Many photographs exist from that time period. Camera photography goes back to the 1820s.
