Abolitionists likely wanted to photograph their convention to document the movement's progress and unity, capturing the faces and voices of those committed to ending slavery. Photography would serve as a powerful tool for advocacy, helping to spread their message and garner support by visually representing the diverse coalition of individuals involved in the cause. Additionally, images could be used in publications and lectures to inspire others and raise awareness about the injustices of slavery.

What was the difference between abolitionists and people who were anti slavery?

In the years leading up to (and also including) the American Civil War, opponents of the Southern way of life were not completely of one mind. Those who belonged to the "anti-slavery" camp generally opposed slavery but, often if not always, were content to allow it to remain in the South. Those who were "abolitionists" were much more zealous: they sought to eradicate slavery in all of its forms, even if that meant revolutionizing (or even destroying) Southern life in its antebellum form. The abolitionists demanded an immediate end to slavery regardless of the consequences. People such as Lincoln believed a gradual end to slavery, with compensation to the slave owners was a good idea. Once the US Civil War began all that changed.

Why did the abolitionists want to end slavery in America?

Religious objection. But probably the main point is that in any circumstances and at any time in History, there have always been individuals who can see more clearly than others. Abolitionists "simply" could see that Blacks were human beings just like them and slavery was therefore a most horrible crime, and no sane individual with minimum intellectual capacities needs to read the Bible to understand this anyway.
