Definition: A portrait is a painting, photograph, sculpture, or other artistic representation of a person, in which the face is always predominant. In arts, a portrait may be represented as half body and even full body, the subject in full body represents better personality and mood. Selfie is one of the most popular forms of self-portraiture in modern life. A good portrait photo has an interesting composition that makes the subject stand out. It’s well-balanced and offers enough negative space to flatter the subject and capture the viewer’s attention. A good portrait focuses on the person’s best features and appealingly presents them.

Example of a portrait photographer: Annie Leibovitz
