Morphology
The meaning 'the practice of taking photographs for news' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'news' (media-reported events) with 'photography' (the craft of taking photographs). This noun‑noun compounding pattern is productive in English and similar across many languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
News photography comes from combining news and photography: imagine a photographer rushing to a scene to take pictures that 'report' what happened. That's why it means taking photographs that show important events for newspapers, magazines, or news websites.
