Most of photography is subjective.

ALL photography is subjective. Just like any art form.

Fine arts photography is an art from and like any art form.  As with any form of visual arts it  is the express the artist's perception and emotions and share them with others.   It is judged first and foremost as a from of visual arts.  While there are other forms of photography, such as photojournalism more often than not they produce iconic images that become cultural and historical touchstones of fine art, e.g., the photo essays of W. Eugene Smith or Eddie Adam's "Saigon Execution," and the iconic images from WW II and Korea published in Life magazine.

As any form or visual arts - photographs will last the test of time or will fade into obscurity.
