capturer
One who snares
A capturer is one who captures—whether taking prisoners, seizing territory, or recording images.
The word is functional but uncommon; English speakers typically prefer "captor" for someone who holds a prisoner, or rephrase entirely: the photographer who captured the moment rather than the capturer of the moment.
