What are the different styles of wedding and portrait photography?
Environmental Portrait Photography.The subject here is photographed in his/her natural working environment. For example a model modelling, a racing driver racing, a jockey riding, a chef cooking etc.
Traditional Portrait Photography.Commonly known as classical portraiture where the face is the predominant feature in the photograph and often described as a Head Shot.
Glamour Portrait Photography. Commonly used when photographing models to highlight the sexy romantic appeal of the subject and their attire.
Lifestyle Portrait Photography. This is a combination of candid and environmental portraiture. The fashion, pharmaceutical and food industries often use lifestyle images to evoke certain emotions in the viewer. This style is often used in wedding/engagement photography as well.
The photographer has the task of capturing the subject but more importantly their feelings/emotions on the day.
