5X8 Portraits

Formal portraits are created using a tripod, ISO 125 or slower film speed, a tripod, Three-point lighting, slow shutter speeds, and telephoto lenses with a large aperture (f~1.8 to f~2.8) to create a shallow depth-of-field. There are several positions you can pose your subject in, but the most common are the "Serious pose" (looking at the camera -not smiling), the "Candid pose" (looking away from the camera-serious or smiling) and the "Smiling pose"(looking at the camera- showing some teeth).
