How to take professional portrait photos

People move around a lot as they’re photographed, not to mention blink and constantly change their facial expressions – and there’s nothing worse than a photo of somebody half-blinking or gurning instead of smiling! To avoid these problems, and to prevent motion blur appearing, you’ll need to use a fast shutter speed. This will also help to ensure sharp shots and avoid camera-shake because more often than not you’ll be shooting portraits handheld.
