Photo Tip Friday: the difference between snapshots and portraits

Photo Tip Friday: the difference between snapshots and portraits

When you are working on your portraits of your person of Influence, please make sure that you are choosing someone that has made an Influence on your life.  These portraits should show someone that has made a positive difference in your life.  

Before you submit your portrait, please make sure that it is a PORTRAIT and not a simple snapshot.  How do you tell the difference?  Well there are a lot of differences, but the most obvious is the amount of time you put into taking the photo.  A portrait is well thought out, planned for and most often posed.  You need to consider lighting, background and composition (just to mention a few).

This blog post linked HERE has good advice also.
