Portraits may be the most subjective of all photographic disciplines. The "perfect portrait" to the shooter, may completely disappoint the client or subject because they simply don't like their smile or the way their hair looked the day of the shoot.
We'll use this forum to expand our minds past the point of what lens to use - and reach more the Excellence of portraits in the true work place.
In the next few days I'll be post images I captured this weekend at a Bar Mitzvah in Washington, D.C. at the Four Season Hotel. It doesn't sound to wild at face value, but I was working w/ a family that didn't have a mother, two kids that didn't want to be there, 5 siblings to the father...and their families...and oh-yea, they showed up an hour late for the portraits.
Stay tuned. JACK
