Portraiture: These photographers can shoot anywhere based on where their client wants to be shot. The work they must create depends on their client because if their client wants them to be portrayed realistic then that's what they must do however if their client wants their portrait to be edited to be more abstract than they have more freedom with changing the style. The salaries they can earn are about $40,280 a year but th at will depend on how often you work and where you work. The amount of experience you have can also add or subtract to the salary. Portrait photography requires on the job training where you would shadow or assist a professional photographer on their shoots. Some photographers get certificates where they can learn a lot about the basics over a couple of weeks. They teach you how to edit, lighting methods, composition, and how to use equipment. Photographers can also get a bachelor’s degree which focuses more on artistic principles other than basics about photography. Portrait photographers can work in a studio or they can work freelance which gives them more flexibility with their schedule. I am interested in this career because I really love trying to capture the essence of a person by using settings and expressions. I love being creative and everyday would be different doing this job based on the person and where you shoot. One of the most famous American portrait photographers is named Annie Leibovitz. She worked for Rolling Ston e, Vanity Fair and other publications. Here is one of her portraits: [|__http://portfolioone.com/photographers/annie-leibovitz/__] Another famous portrait photographer is Steve McCurry who works for National Geographic.

This weekend my family is going to the lake and so I am going to try and capture some really unique and interesting portraits of them but I am going to let them tell me what mood they want, because if this was a real portrait shoot the client would tell me what they want and I would have to listen to what they want.
