People seem to have an issue recognizing the difference between a headshot and a portrait, they also seem to post every shot from the same shoot of the same subject.

Is it just me or are a lot of the photos posted in this thread not headshots?

you aint wrong :) some of my posts very closed to the headshot but they are not. I should crop them a little bit more

Could someone please explain the difference between a portrait and a headshot, preferably with examples? English is a really foreign language to me, so I don't understand some of the subtle differences.

I love doing head shots... I also love seeing other peoples head shots.. I did a search to see if there were any Threads of this type and couldn't find it.. so I thought I would start one!

So... Here's the deal..

Post your best head shots! ( Head and shoulders only )

I'll get this ball a rollin.. :)

Welcome to PotN ;-)a, people seem to have a hard time reading and understanding a lot of the various threads..

I hope I got that right. This should be a heatshot by now - or is it not there yet? For the second one, can the hand be there, or is it already redundant?

Does it look like I'm new here? I will admit that I utilize the ignore list but the redundancy of posts, crossposting and tomfoolery has driven me to other forums.

I believe the difference is in the framing and the environment, the first is a headshot and the second is a portrait.

I like the second one. Expressive.


I don't know anything. But I know other things.

Thank you, I would agree especially since he's a musician and he's proud of his piano.
