Portrait photography is the art of capturing the personality, identity, and story of a person or group through the use of lighting, poses, and backgrounds.
The aim of portraiture is to create an image of your subject that reveals something of their character. The best way to do this is by drawing the viewer’s attention towards the face — especially their eyes

Self Portraits
The original selfie, self portraits can be as casual or complex as the photographer intends. You can create a studio set up to take traditional portraits, go conceptual, or take your portraits in a more fine art direction. Because the photographer and subject are one and the same, self portraits can often have a raw and compelling quality due to the fact that there is nobody else there to make you camera-shy.
