In point of fact if you have no interest in the middle part you are a snapshooter (although snapshooters can produce interesting pictures), not a photographer. A photographer does photography, a snapshooter does pictures.
Err, should I be offended now? Are you calling me a name or is it OK to be a snapshooter in these parts?
Funny thing is no one thinks they are a chef because they eat food, no one thinks they are a musician because they listen to music.
So, noone who watches pictures thinks they are a photographer, not even a snapshooter. I don't see what you are saying here.
