fimgirl Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 The old portraits thread has been archived hence a new thread. Guidelines via Wikipedia "A portrait is a photograph of a person, in which the face and its expression is predominant. The intent is to display the likeness, personality, and even the mood of the person. For this reason, in photography a portrait is generally not a snapshot, but a composed image of a person in a still position. A portrait often shows a person looking directly at the photographer, in order to most successfully engage the subject with the viewer." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJP Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 ^^Now you see I've always wanted to be able to do those sort of shots but none of my site blokes will wear a dress or lie down in those sort of poses. Got all the gear but no models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJP Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Celebrity portraits expose hidden character Nikos Aliagas, currently the TV host of “The Voice” in France and a well-known personality himself, loves finding the “invisible side” of celebrities and showing them at their most human. The French-Greek entertainer’s successful career as a TV and radio host and journalist has allowed him to interview hundreds of stars, including Meryl Streep, Robert Downey Jr., and Angelina Jolie. After every interview, Nikos asks to take a quick black-and-white photo. In these photos, he shows the celebrities in a whole new light. http://blog.flickr.net/en/2014/12/05/celebrity-portraits-expose-hidden-character/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
