Portrait Photography
Personal Portrait Photography is posing for photos when the product will be for your personal, private use only. That includes couples, engagement, wedding, group and class photos; quinceañera, graduation, and senior pictures; maternity, baby, and family portraits; and similar occasions. This applies even when the photographer is a friend, family member, or other nonprofessional, paid or not.
Photos for blogs, websites, and social media platforms; headshots; and portfolio work are not considered personal portraits and must be arranged separately. Commercial Still Photography requirements will apply. Visit FilmHuntington.org for more information.
