FASHION PORTRAITS

What is an Editorial Portrait?

An editorial portrait is a photograph taken for publication in a magazine, newspaper, or online media, to accompany an article or feature story. It usually depicts a person of interest or a subject relevant to the story and is meant to capture their essence, personality, or mood in a way that supports or complements the written content. Editorial portraits are often shot in a studio setting or on location, and they can be posed or candid, color or black-and-white.

What does a Photographer Look for in an Image?​

A photographer typically looks for several elements in a photograph to determine its quality and impact. These elements can include:

  1. Composition: the arrangement of objects, people, the background, and all elements within the frame.
  2. Lighting: the way light is used to illuminate the subject and create mood and atmosphere.
  3. Focus: the clarity and sharpness of the subject.
  4. Color: the use of color to enhance the subject and create visual interest.
  5. Emotion: the ability of the photograph to evoke an emotional response from the viewer.
  6. Storytelling: the ability of the photograph to tell a story or convey a message.


Ultimately, a photographer seeks to create photographs that are aesthetically pleasing, impactful, and communicate something meaningful to the viewer.
