I forget the name, but there's a great documentary about the man and methods who got it all started. Wilson 'Snowflake' Bentley was the man and, as I recall, he got some help from his wife and went to great lengths to take his pictures.
This was back in the 1860s and very difficult. The Smithsonian has some of his works on display. It is great how accessible this has become. I find them fascinating but I'm very biased. I have quite an extreme love of snow.
