Portrait vs Landscape. Understanding the Differences
You might be under the impression that it doesn’t really matter whether you choose to frame your shot using the portrait or landscape orientation. But that couldn’t be further from the truth. Because it actually influences the storytelling, the perception of the main subject, and the emotional impact quite significantly. Keep in mind that photography is kind of an art of illusion. You are responsible for what’s included into the frame and what’s not. Choosing the right orientation can help you provide the necessary context and evoke exactly the emotions that you want.
