Commercial Portrait - Magazine Cover
Both the fine art and commercial portraits are aesthetically appealing. Each is well thought out in terms of what the photographer wants to convey to the audience. The images are well developed and thoroughly convey an emotion.
There are more differences than similarities. The fine art portrait is more aligned with what the photographer wants to convey. They are not impacted by having to sell magazines. The fine art portraits are carefully designed to demonstrate a specific mood. The commercial portraits are more "spur of the moment." Their poses are not intricately placed as the fine are ones are. There is thought as to what the final look should be, but the facial expression is captured in a moment. The commercial photos are not as "deep" as the fine art ones are: they are subject to public appeal, which can limit a photographer's creative opinion.
