February 6th, 2011
Post your fave portraits.... may it be a slefie, animal portrait, babies, fashion whatever... i just wanna see how y'all work with portraits... there are lots of good portrait photogs here on 365 i know... i'll share some.. =)







February 6th, 2011
awesome thread!
I started with portraits...got burned out on portraits. Thought I'd never take another portrait again as long as I lived....now I'm shooting weddings and find myself taking more and more...yep you guessed it....portraits in my 365. Selfies too, which is crazy since I'd never even attempted that before.
Here's some I'm proud of.












That's a lot...lol. Hope it's not too many. Didn't mean to overload the thread ;)
February 6th, 2011
@amyhughes you always have this whimsical feeling on your photos... you always deliver and that i love! =) i personally faved that photo at the top most.. =)

February 6th, 2011
@tamallamma I am LOVING your bw portrait series! But your portraits of your kiddos are perfect! Look how much your little girl is growing?? wow
February 6th, 2011
@maceugenio how come i can't post photos like the others, only links.
Could you tell me how to do it.
February 6th, 2011
I am new and learning - but this is where I'm at so far. If anyone has any suggestions as to what I could have done differently or better - please say!










February 6th, 2011
@amyhughes

I love all of yours - but I am especially mad about your Mat Hatter. :) Love, love, love it. So creative and beautifully done.
February 6th, 2011
@viranod my gosh... that photo at the bottom.. that's awesome!

@swagih the part where u see the "tags" there's an HTML there.. you copy it and then paste it here....the one that says "SHARE"

@nanascraps those are pretty cool for a beginner.... =)
February 6th, 2011
Ed
Then and now portrait ... (I didn't take the 1st one!)

February 6th, 2011

@edpartridge A REMAKE!! that's sooooooooo cool!!! =)

@robinwarner and you! yes you... one of the best portrait photographers i've seen here... =) i love the weird guy you posted, the one whose holding a banner and that bottom photo.. =)
February 6th, 2011
Thank you!!!! That one was so much fun to dress up for @nanascraps and btw, your portraits are great!! Especially the compositions. The puppy one is sooooo cute :)
February 6th, 2011
I have only one, a selfie, but I like it and might be tempted to do it again.
February 6th, 2011
@geertje great light and the shadow.. OH MY!
February 6th, 2011
@edpartridge

Cool - love the then and now.
February 6th, 2011
I don't have much experience with portraits - mine are all my kids and my man. Looking to branch out soon - I need new faces to practice on :)) Critique highly sought = both photgraphy and processing related.











This one made it to the popular page when I posted it, which is still beyond my comprehension...such a silly and cartoony photo. :)
February 6th, 2011
@sdpace photos of kids never fail to put smile on your face... right? =) you've got some nice composition going on there.. =)
February 6th, 2011
@maceugenio Thanks ;)









February 6th, 2011
LET ME POST A SELFIE! hahahhahaha =)

February 6th, 2011
@swagih don't mention buddy =)
February 6th, 2011


Combination of lucky light and lucky shadows. And a great model (my husband.)
February 6th, 2011
@suzywaldo and what you got? A COOL PORTRAIT! i love that little triangle light on his right cheek... indication of a perfect lighting.. =)
February 6th, 2011
Not sure if it counts as a true "portrait" but I adore it all the same
February 6th, 2011
@alexgdowding yeah!!! looks fun! =)

Sorry for all of them; I kinda want to see them all together! Fun thread. :)
February 6th, 2011
@maceugenio I think my love for it is partly down to the rarity of getting a shot of an actor that isn't posed or in character! Nice tats by the way
February 6th, 2011
@laceyjogautreau those are cool shot!!!!! oh my!

@alexgdowding hey thanks alex =)

I am by no means a photographer like most of you are, but I think I've got a couple good ones.
I LOVE this one of my mastiff Bon

And this one of my husband turned out a little blurry, so I went with it.
February 6th, 2011
@yoelao cute photo =p

@angusroxey is that a labrador? it looks like one.. ^__^
February 6th, 2011
This is where i started my photography Portraits, I make all the people in the house as my model ha ha ha No fee at all. This is one of those he he he.
February 6th, 2011
@maceugenio no he's an English Mastiff
February 6th, 2011
@maceugenio A selfie and a sort of portrait...



February 6th, 2011
@blueburn11 that's the price to pay when family knows youre a photographer... they pose and you click for free haha
February 6th, 2011
@angusroxey awww i see.. =)

@killerjackalope cool selfie!!! =)
February 6th, 2011
@maceugenio Thanks, a few of the bleeders on here have been making me do them since I don't like doing them... Think that was number three...

@script @ssmiley6017 cool drama on those BnW photos.. =)
February 6th, 2011






February 6th, 2011
@maceugenio - ha ha ha you are definitely right. Not only families also friends, they are really willing to pose without talent fee. as long that you post it in Facebook ha ha ha ha and give them a copy ha ha ha.
February 6th, 2011

oops.. can you tell I love portraits?
February 7th, 2011
Portraits definitely aren't my strength, but I want to try more of them. This thread is full of inspiration - you guys are so good! I mainly have just done my kids, but would love to do selfies and some of friends and family.

February 7th, 2011

February 7th, 2011
I always wish I could do something really spectacular, but I've done a few I am proud of... mind you, scannign through this discussion has given me heaps of inspiration! Thanks everyone!


My crazy nephew playing with my son



My son in a rare, quiet mood

February 7th, 2011

Very pleased with this one as her skin is not good and she has numerous facial piercings that she didn't really want in the shot, my first real go at serious editing! Beautiful girl.
February 7th, 2011



My daughter, very easy shot!
February 7th, 2011
I hate photos of myself and only have a couple bad ones so you'll have to settle for these :-)



February 7th, 2011

February 7th, 2011
I absolutely love this picture of my son. It makes me smile everytime I look at it.
February 7th, 2011
This is my daughter. She took this, so it's from her project. But I really love it!

February 7th, 2011
This is a great thread! I'm very new to photography, and working hard to get the technical things down. I'm finding that the more I learn the worse things get. Threads like this are inspiring and lead me to follow people I can learn from. Thanks! Here are some of the portraits I've done recently:

a friend


coworkers :)


another coworker


my friend's little guy

@lauracaseyfoss I adore your portraits; you seem to need no help at all! However, I do sympathize; the more I learn, the more I get overwhelmed, but have found that mastering one thing at a time works for me.

Just started working on babay portraits with the recent birth of my nephew. Lighting is always a challenge if I am not working with natural light.
February 8th, 2011
I do a lot of self portraits. They are usually my go to picture when I've run out of ideas.













Here are two from a recent pregnancy session I did too.

February 8th, 2011
Wonderful portrait photography here! I still don't feel I have the hang of taking proper portraits of people.
February 8th, 2011
I don't tend to do portraits either but it's great to see all these wonderful pictures!
February 8th, 2011
i don't seem to do many portraits. . . but there's this

of hunter



my boy, evan, on bass



worst ever backround - but my 3 (cutest) boys and baby hunter (i think i'll try to do something with the backround now that i have a minimal knowledge of photoshop. . .to be continued. . .)

February 8th, 2011
I really want to get better at portraits, but both of the objects at hand - the hubby and the dog - don't like to pose for me!
Here are a couple shots though:

February 8th, 2011
I don't do many portraits but here are some of the ones I've done so far. I definitely need more practice. Most of these are from class and I probably wouldn't have a clue how to pose people without his input.

My friend Bobbie Lynn, who lost her battle with leukemia.
