Portrait Photography for Beginners




Portrait Photography for Beginners

A portrait is one of the most difficult, but also the most satisfying and popular themes in photography. In fact, not only in photography. If we trace the history of art, we’ll soon notice that regardless of the changing times, people always tried to preserve their image. A portrait, even though it’s so popular, can’t be counted among the easiest themes. This course will discuss the most important notions related to portrait photography. We’ll show you what to focus on, what equipment to choose, how to pose models, where to look for the best light and how to avoid major problems. We will practice low key and high key techniques, we will give you the best lighting patterns that you can use, and we will show you various ways of taking portrait photos in any space. Some lessons end with important summaries which will help you master portrait photography. Trust our experience in teaching.
