PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an imaging apparatus and method, capable of avoiding display of cumbersome auxiliary lines to display auxiliary lines to which a user can easily align an object image. SOLUTION: The imaging apparatus includes; an auxiliary line display unit displaying at least one vertical line movable in a horizontal direction within a screen and at least one horizontal line movable in a vertical direction within the screen; a profile extracting unit extracting a profile of an object image from image data obtained by photographing the object; a straight line detecting unit detecting a plurality of straight line sections from the extracted profile; a target extracting unit extracting a target straight line section from the plurality of detected straight line sections, according to angles and lengths of the detected straight lines sections in the screen; and a distance calculating unit calculating a distance between the extracted target straight line section and the vertical line or the horizontal line. The auxiliary line display unit displays the vertical line or the horizontal line while moving it toward the target straight section, on the basis of the distance between the extracted target straight line section and the vertical line or the horizontal line.
