Photography was invented in the mid-1800's. They didn't have the technology that we have today. Some pictures took ten minutes of the object or person being photographed to stay still to come out right. Also, cameras did not have flash or any fancy gadgets like we have on cameras today. The photographer would not know if the picture came out right until they sat in a darkroom and developed each picture, one by one.
Matthew Brady is known for the pictures he too during the Civil War. He was known as the "Father of Photojournalism" and was considered to be one of the greatest photographers during the Civil War. He took the famous pictures of Abraham Lincoln, the Battle of Antietam, and many other battles and important people. It's even said that he took the picture of Lincoln that is used today on the five dollar bill and the penny.
For some "good" pictures from the 1840's to the 1860's, look up Matthew Brady. You may find some that are familiar.
