Photo Man Theory
The Photo Man is actually Ness' dad. Using his PSI powers, he teleports to his son during his adventure to take photos. He disguised himself so that Ness wouldn't know it was him. When he's not teleporting around to make his son do poses while saying things about haired foods, he's at work, processing all of the photos.
The reason he's doing this is kept secret, but in truth, the Photo Man, Ness' Dad, is to make a profit off of the photos. He daydreams about one day selling the photos for truckloads of cash, by advertising them as "Wonder Kid Adventure Photos". When he finally got rich, he would spend it all on the most extensive plastic surgery treatment: the surgery of becoming a telephone.
