Great Article on Portrait Photography
Just read a great post at Photo Camel on the Rules for Portrait Photography. Portraiture is something I've more or less stayed away from - the complexities of lighting, posing, and capture make this style of photography pretty imposing. Ben Jones has distilled the essentials down to a succinct list - with image examples - to help make some sense out of it all. Read the post here - then join Photo Camel to thank Ben for making this resource available. Note: After you finish reading the rules, browse through the remaining comments to download a PDF and see an explanation of the 1-3-2 and 1-2-2 poses (posted on 9/7/2007).
