Creative portrait photography Okay...now this is my question...how do you get "creative" or "artistic" with simple portrait photography, ie. weddings, engagements, bridals, etc? Does anyone have some great ideas? Iam finding that the majority of critiques that I get is that they are not artistic enough...

You have posed the question that I had a hard time with, and why I haven't started doing any portraiture until now. I, for one, HATE the posed portrait. Nothing about it is natural. Knowing this, and having a style all my own, I wanted it to be incorporated into any portraiture that I did. So, one good example is a drug a fancy crushed red velvet armchair out into a field and had the child play around on it, in it, etc. Do things people don't expect. I don't think artistry lies in the props, after effects/editing, it's the "unposed-ness" and the photographer having a creative, imaginative eye to begin with. I don't know if this helps, just thought I'd offer it.
