AS WE HAVE SEEN IN PHOTOGRAPHY WE HAVE A SMALL GADGET CALLED A DIGITAL CAMERA. A VERSATILE TOOL TO ENCAPTURE THE WHOLE GLOBE. the wonders have hidden in it.....they need exploitation, one by one carefully remembering each's independent capability.....Besides many feature, it has a wonderful feature of portrait.....There is a separate feature(sign) of portrait on the camera's dial. This in itself will allow the use of bigger aperture to give your face a distinctness of portraiture by giving less depth of field....It means camera used bigger aperture and lower shutter speed. If it is taken in sun light, it can be taken handheld, otherwise in shadow slower shutter speed is used as mentioned above, it will be better to use tripod. Since blurred/shaky shots are of no use.
2. Usually a close-up portrait implies a photograph in which the face of a person is wholly present in the frame...However you can frame your pictures in unconventional ways to add a sense of mystery to the person's appearance. Cropping the face while framing the picture is an experiment that can yield dynamic/unusual results... You can do this either while framing the image or by cropping it in a photo editing software. The easiest way one can use this technique is to crop the face closely so that the frame ends at the forehead and above the chin. Another thing you can try is to crop the face through the nose so that half the face can be seen....this uses the natural symmetry in one's face to add mystery in the portrait.....I have used 3/4th of the cropped face as explained above... there is no limit in experimenting.
3. Using un- common tight closeups is a common cinematic technique. that enhances portraits and help you steer away from the cliche.
