When we think of photographing people, we automatically think of taking a portrait, but not all people photography is portraiture.
A portrait is (according to one dictionary definition) a
painting, drawing or photograph of a person, often only the face or
a description. A photographic portrait focuses on the person and
attempts to convey an image of what or who the person is, whether
physically, or perhaps spiritually or emotionally. There is also
the group portrait, usually an image of a small number of people
(siuch as a team or family portrait).
However, people can also be photographed in other ways, where the
focus might not be the individuals being photographed, but the
social or cultural context (fashion, news events, sporting events
etc.) or their relationship to the scene in which they are
placed.
