Typically, a portrait is created through the strategic use of lighting and background, and an important component of portrait photography is understanding how to pose in a way that looks natural and comfortable. This style of photography is often used to commemorate important milestones or special events, help people promote themselves, or simply create a memory of a particular moment in life.

PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY, ALSO CALLED PORTRAIT, IS A TYPE OF PHOTOGRAPHY WHERE THE OBJECT IS ONE OR SEVERAL PEOPLE, AND THE PURPOSE IS TO CONVEY SOMETHING ABOUT THE SUBJECT'S IDENTITY, PERSONALITY, OR STORY.
