Abstract: A photographing apparatus for preventing or reducing light leakage and an image sensor thereof are provided. The photographing apparatus includes an image sensor configured to include a plurality of pixels respectively having a Photo Diode and a Storage Diode for temporarily storing a charge accumulated in the Photo Diode and an image processor configured to perform an image processing operation by receiving the charge stored in the Storage Diode of each of the plurality of pixels. In addition, the image sensor has a structure where the Storage Diodes of the plurality of pixels are arrayed to be adjacent to each other. Accordingly, the photographing apparatus may prevent the light leakage from the adjacent pixel being flowed into a Storage Diode of each pixel.
