In this chapter, we delve into the diverse styles of portrait photography. Formal portraits focus solely on the subject, minimizing background distractions. Candid portraits capture individuals in spontaneous moments of daily life, showcasing their true selves. Environmental portraits, whether posed or unposed, highlight the subject's surroundings to convey deeper context. Additionally, we explore self-portraits, where photographers depict themselves, reflecting personal perspectives. Understanding these styles enriches portrait photography and enhances artistic expression.
