This is how the dictionary defines portrait...
por·trait :
1.a likeness of a person, esp. of the face, as a painting, drawing, or photograph: a gallery of family portraits.
2.a verbal picture or description, usually of a person.
Sarah (pictured far right above) an experienced photographer and mentor in Photo 'Graphic' Arts expands on the element
of photo portraiture. Sarah conducts a presentation surrounding this crucial component
of photographic expression. With Sarah's very clear and straight forward approach she proposes the question of how a portrait is defined. By presenting a well researched selection
of material including the work of various photographers Sarah encourages the participants to explore the distinct styles of photographic portraiture. This topic proves to trigger passionate involvement from the group. Valid views are expressed and discussed from the differences between a snap shot and a portrait, aesthetic value to the extensive genres within photography.
Positively it is evident that Sarah inspires the group and reinforces the conviction that
no matter the subject, style or genre anyone can be a portrait.
A portraits captures time and tells a story, whether it is from a village in Africa or a photo booth in a suburban mall.
Thank you Sarah!
