Nellis believes that if you take that for a large number of portraits reproduced photo, it is unlikely to take the character figures. But if you take portrait to a friend, the much greater hope of success, the most successful portrait photos is because you are familiar with your perturbation, this film from the photo, who was perturbation will see after that: "right, This is completely like me. "

Owen. Champaign
He is engaged in a "creative new fashion photos," the portrait photographer. He created a photographic realism and the kind of simple, innovative style.

This approach enabled him to capture the look of being targets of perturbation and soul. "
Usually, Payne take a picture so to spend a long time because he believes that many people only use a very short time to watch photos.

Tumen Boxers
Japanese photographer. His portrait photography is unique in many brilliant insights.
He pointed out: "The so-called portrait photography, as is the personal history, recorded the existence of the community.
The so-called beautiful face, is not feeling the exposed faces.
I think that was the drawback is, in fact it often is the only place full of charm. Variable shortcomings for the charm, at least this is the photographer's goodwill.
In photography, it is rigidly adhering to an instant face the foolish. No matter who is Huiku will laugh. Hidden in the bottom of my heart's feelings, to be shown in the mouth. Age, most easily from person provides some background on the demonstrated. Is so sad.
All the arts are not exceptions, most people forget is that on the stage means. That is to say, is to see a photo of people forget they are in to see the photo.
Dominated by the photographer, is not decent photo shoot to the. Photographer if not avoid such a situation, not to be perturbation to the introduction of a 'note listen to respect it' state of mind, it is not of. Courage is the most important.
Focus on the eyes, the better the smaller the aperture, shutter action sooner the better. "
Yimo gold. Cunningham
A well-known U.S. female photographer. She began photography from 1910 to 1976 died in portrait photography for 60 years, accumulated a lot of portrait photography experience. And the creation of a lot of reference for future generations of portrait photography a good way.



Cunningham, shooting portraits of the key is to look through the figures show the character and inner world. As early as 1910, in Europe during the study, she gave a Lutheran professor Paiguo portrait. At that time, she thought a professor of mathematical problems, professor of food for thought, Cunningham pressed the shutter, the professor attentively consider issues of expression shot down. The attempt to make her learn how to be a perturbation to the spirit of tension and show their real feelings of filming methods. This is to be made from a series of perturbation of the work and life issues, so that he answered or thought. This approach, she has been used to in their twilight years. April 1976, shortly before the death of Cunningham, she had 90 years to the Paiguo A couple took Meyer, Meyer later recalled: "Cunningham is very capable, she in a very short time to make We became close friends. She makes us feel comfortable, encouraged by a self-confidence, the courage to speak. We are like an old friend of the same conversation. "Cunningham of the shooting method, but for many portrait photographers used, including Canada Cash well-known portrait photographer, and, in effect, gone beyond.
Cunningham also believe that the shooting portraits, neither is the idealized figure, and do not demonize them, faithful to the natural character of the performance figures on the screen. To achieve this is not easy, it requires those who strive to study photography, from practice to find a way.
1975, the year before Cunningham's death, her old to a portrait of Dr. shoot, the wife of Dr. in the side, said: "Attention, dear, do not let the loss of teeth exposed," Dr. mouth smile, Hom Ning An quickly activated the shutter, and that the lack of a tooth smile shot down. Why Cunningham just want to crawl the screen? » Because, in Cunningham, view, one of the elderly over 90, only lost a tooth, it is a healthy characteristics. The results, sold the photos are very satisfied with chemists, and write a new chapter of the Songliao Yi chemical papers to Cunningham, said.

When the Andean Ansaierya
Well-known photographic master. An Saier. Adams Speaking of portrait photography, said: "I think that portrait photos to the best static, the head of state in a quiet almost like sculpture and the United States. This and capture different, we have to wait a rich facial expressions, often results Lost an opportunity in my campaign under the photo captures very little. I think the characters in their performance characteristics in a static state faces. I am of such photos is that most of the film. I very few people Baihao camera position, I always waiting for them to relax, a natural posture, and then I say, 'Do not move' or 'so'! "
1932 Adams in San Francisco at the time for the star performers Caroline. Ansipaqi took a portrait of Zhao. Photos made into, people call it "an outstanding stone sculptures like Portrait," and some people even think that it is the sculpture of the head shot photos. Adams listened to these arguments very pleased. After recalled this picture of the shooting, he said: "I firmly believe that the most profound and moving photographic pictures of people like this, when people can be an allusion to the facial identity and personality, the photos in a static state tips Perturbation was the basic characteristic. Use more than one second or one second of exposure can often reach this point. If you use the flash, this should be good at crawling you expect of expression, rather than to be a long time to put perturbation posture. I still adhere to the usual 'capture' photos were only a perturbation of the instant image of a camera shutter and often only by the movement of things crawling on the fragment. An impression that many artists can be seen in various Image and various responses to integrated, to create an expressive image.
Portrait photographer can only grasp a process of the passage of time, in the process of the figures describe characteristics of the face. Reflect the expression of an instant image may occasionally show a wide range of characters personality, but it is only a perfect portrait of it. "
Adams added: "The idea is creative photography in one of the most important factor. Once you have found perturbation of expression, such expression - facial muscle activity pause a moment - may be passed and to avoid the moment when the shutter opens rapidly .
Perturbation to understand the personality of us can make some people rich is expected to face a moment, not only in the course of changes in facial expressions identify them. Of course, to do this and have a great deal of practical experience. "
