Gurukuls Of Photography
Digital cameras, smartphones and the ever-increasing connectivity have increased the popularity of photography, whether you consider it an art, craft, profession or hobby.

We connected with leading photography institutes in the country, seeking the details of their courses. The following pages feature the photography schools who sent us the details within the specified time limit.

Portraiture
According to Paul L. Anderson, The Fine Art of Photography (1919), “The fundamental purpose of portraiture is to furnish a complete and satisfactory likeness of the sitter – the true portrait, then, should present a complete and satisfactory representation of the contours and gradations of the face; it should be as fully descriptive as possible of the sitter’s character; and it should be a picture of such nature as to be artistically pleasing to one who is unacquainted with the original – the best portraitist is the one who combines in fullest measure the power of reading character, knowledge of the effects of light and shadow, and mastery of the techniques of his medium, and it necessarily follows that no one ever passes the need for study.”
