Morphology
fine-art + photography
The meaning is directly derivable from combining 'fine-art' (art made for aesthetic or creative purposes) with 'photography' (the craft of making photographs): it denotes photography produced as artistic expression rather than documentary or commercial work. This compositional pattern is common and predictable across languages, so a B1 learner who knows the constituent words will readily infer the intended meaning.
Etymology
Fine-art photography comes from photographers who wanted their photography to be seen like fine art, meaning paintings and sculptures made for beauty and the artist's ideas. So today fine-art photography means photos made mainly for 'art' and the photographer's ideas, not to record news or to sell products.
