ramadan are we allowed to take photos?

Assalamualeykum

I know we can't draw people and animals but can we take photos of them?

I was reading some article on this and now I'm not so sure.

    Normal people can do anything they want. Islam sounds like something for slaves.

    Yes, you can but you cannot print them out and hang them up in places. It's best to keep them digitally.
