A portrait is one of the basic genres of photography, and by its example it is possible to develop the skills necessary for shooting people in other genres.

The ability to work with a model, to see a frame, to improvise, to put depth and meaning into pictures will be useful to you wherever a person appears in the frame.

The portrait sets itself the task of telling not only about the face of a person, but through this appearance to convey his inner world. Everyone remembers the first task, but many forget about the second, and it is precisely in it that a huge creative potential is hidden.

Imagine that by beautifully conveying the texture in the portrait, you get recognition points. The trick is that you can earn as many “points” by transmitting not only texture, but also psychology. Thus, using both approaches, you repeatedly strengthen your work, making them deeper, more unique, more unique.

The course is aimed at developing students' skills in shooting and interacting with models, through the use of psychophysics, emotions and props, to create more expressive artistic images.
