You cannot copyright a business name, but you can register it as a trademark.
The professional name for an aerial photography is aerial photographer. Either (your name) Aerial Photography Service or (your town) Aerial Photography Service. The business people and government agencies who hire aerial photographers want to see that kind of name for two reasons. It gives off an aura of sober professionalism. And when your company's name shows up on the list of payables for the period, no questions like "what did we buy from these guys?" I'll give an example. Next spring I will buy a drum scanner and a rotary film processor and start a business preparing huge images for things like billboards and bus wraps. I could name the company something like "Bas Relief" (BAS would mean big-a scans) or Whirling Art (because the drum spins in the scanner) but no, it I'll be Pacific Northwest Drum Scanner Service. I am working at Singaporeaerialphotography.com as an aerial photographer.
It is Photography. Photography comes from 2 greek words Photo is the stem that means "light" and graphein is the verb that means "to write" so literally, photography means writing with light
I'm a photographer with a photography studio named Rare Studio based in Amsterdam. In my personal assessment, I find portrait photography to be my favorite genre. Portrait Photography is a compelling art form centered around capturing the unique characteristics, emotions, and personality of individuals or groups. It involves a thoughtful blend of composition, lighting, and posing to convey the essence of the subject in a visually appealing manner. The composition, including framing and background selection, is crucial in creating a harmonious and engaging portrait. Lighting, whether natural or artificial, plays a pivotal role in highlighting facial features and setting the desired mood. Skilled photographers guide their subjects to pose naturally, fostering a genuine connection and expression. The choice of focal length and framing techniques further contributes to the overall impact of the portrait. Post-processing techniques, including editing and retouching, are often employed to refine and enhance the final image. Whether capturing formal studio portraits, candid moments, or environmental portraits that provide context, portrait photography remains a powerful means of storytelling and artistic expression.
Social photography is about the personal side of photography. Examples of this type of photography would include family portraiture, wedding photography and events photography to name just a few. This is often confused with social documentary photography, which is a branch of photography that focuses on capturing the natural condition of the society. Street photography can be a good example of doing this type of photography.

Copyright. (Name of the business)
No. A name is a trademark as in a business . Copyright is a protection of written material. Your name is not written material.
Your business name is the first thing any potential customer will see. Your photography business name should clearly show what your business is about and should attract the sort of people you are targeting as your potential clients.Using your own name has advantages and disadvantages. The plus is that as you develop a good reputation this adds value to your business name. The disadvantage is that it does not set you apart from other photography businesses. Your business name should act as a marketing tool. Your name, intially, will not fulfil this function. Including aspects such as your niche, your location and your skills in your photography business name will appeal to your potential market. For example Cedar View Images will immediately inform potential customers in Cedar View that this is your area, Perfect Portraits informs people that your speciality is portrait photography. Brainstorm relevant words associated with photography and choose a combination that works for you.

Most photographers opening their private business use their names, like Elizabeth duncan Photography.
