1. What is Portraiture

Portrait photography is a genre of photography where the main focus is on capturing the likeness and personality of an individual or group of people. The photographer’s goal is to create a visual representation of the subject that conveys their unique qualities and character. Portrait photography involves using photographic techniques such as lighting, posing, and composition to capture the identity, personality, and essence of the subject. Different types of portrait photography exist, which depend on the subject and the style used.

2. Finding Focus

The use of animal-based raw materials in the production of makeup tools is a prevalent social issue. For instance, some makeup brushes and applicators are made from animal hair or fur. However, as more people adopt vegan lifestyles, there is a growing movement to discourage the use of such products and promote the use of organic and natural cosmetics. So While I’m taking this identity portraits picture I would take pictures of organic cosmetics.
