What is it?
An environmental portrait is a portrait taken of a person or people in a situation that they live in and a place that says something about who they are. It is often a place of work, rest or play. In simpler terms any portrait which gets us to know about the life terms, their physical and biological interactions with the local ecology, showing their nativity can be called as an Environmental Portrait.
They are interesting and easy to shoot because:
- They give context to the subject you’re photographing
- They also often give the viewer real insight into the personality and lifestyle of your subject.
