A formal portrait is best described as a carefully arrange pose under effective lighting conditions. Formal portraiture is probably the most common and well-known type of portraiture, with subjects generally posed on a plain background to avoid distractions. In this article, I’m going to look at how to shoot stunning formal portraits from start to finish. GEAR Obviously, you’ll need your camera!

The 50R is kind of like Jeep coming out with a new version of the Wrangler – it’s a new version of a distinctive and somewhat quirky classic that many people know and love. But the 100S is more like Jeep announcing that, along with the new Wrangler, they’re also going to make a gyrocopter that runs on cooking oil. Sure, a Wrangler is cool and all, but let’s hear more about that chopper! That analogy…
