Portrait photography related extensions:

Different from ordinary portrait photography, portrait photography takes the description and expression of the subject's specific appearance and manner as its primary creative task. Although some portrait photography works also contain certain plots, they still mainly show the appearance of the subject, and a considerable number of portrait photography works only explain the image of the subject without specific plots.

Figure photography focuses on the events and activities that the subject participates in, and its main task is to show the specific plot, rather than showing the appearance and behavior of the subject with vivid images. The important difference between them is whether they describe the appearance of the characters in detail.

Whether it's a single person or a group of people, whether it's a snapshot in a scene or a pose in a photo studio, whether it's a plot or not, as long as it's a photo that mainly shows the specific appearance and mental state of the subject, it belongs to the category of portrait photography.

Those photographic works that mainly show the activities and plots of the characters and reflect a certain theme of life, but the appearance of the subject is not very prominent, whether it is close-up or whole body, can only belong to the category of character photography. Of course, in a broad sense, portrait photography is about people and also belongs to character photography.

Portrait photography takes the description and description of the appearance and manner of the subject as its performance task, and the characters should have distinctive looks. Can be divided into three categories: photography indoor portrait, indoor specific environment portrait, outdoor portrait. Portrait photography needs both form and spirit.
