Our Style of Photography
While each of our team of photographers has a specific style that they like to specialize in specifically, all of them excel in each of the follow categories. Traditional Portraits
Traditional or Classical portraiture would refer to an image where the subjects face is the predominant element. The purpose of the photograph is to depict a visual representation of that perso
n. The subject is expected to be looking directly at the camera. With what is described as a head-shot, two thirds or full body framing can be used. Environmental Portraits
The term Environmental Portrait refers to an image where the subject is photographed in person’s natural environment. For example, a worker photographed at a construction site, teacher in the classroom, sculptor in their studio and so on. Surroundings are used to compliment the subject and to emphasize their character. Subject and setting are usually chosen by the photographer. Candid Portraits
A candid portrait is taken without the subject expecting or acknowledging the photographer. This style is often used in photo journalism, travel photography, street photography and event photography. As opposed to an environmental portrait this image is captured at the moment rather than set up. Lifestyle Portraits
The term lifestyle portrait refers to portraits where emphasis is given to suggest the “style of living” of the individuals depicted. Technically it is a combination of environmental portrait and candid portrait. More weight is given to communicate the feeling of life experience of the subject. This style has numerous implications in commercial and fine art photography. Editorial, fashion, pharmaceutical, and food industries often use lifestyle images to evoke emotions in viewers by depiction of desired life styles. It is common to see this style used in wedding and family portrait photography as well. Glamor Portraits
The term Glamor Portrait refers to portraits where emphasis is given to highlight the sexy romantic appeal of the subject. This style of photography in which the subjects, usually female, are portrayed in a sexually alluring manner and may be fully clothed or semi-nude. Glamor photography is generally a composed image of a subject in a still position.
