Portraiture Definition Post

Official definition:
portrait is a painting, photograph, sculpture, or other artistic representation of a person, in which the face and its expression is predominant.

My interpretation:
Portraiture is a form of capturing a representation of a person. This can have many different forms and styles. However they all share a common ground of the person's face being the main focus of the photograph.

Dead pan: A person having no/a neutral expression on their face.
The image below is an example of a dead pan picture.
