Depth of Field and Storytelling in Portrait Photography

One of the most important decisions made when taking a portrait is how much depth of field (DoF) to have in your image. This is because what is included and in focus in your image plays a large role in the storytelling of the photo. Today, I’d like to explore the factors that contribute to DoF, and especially the storytelling impact of a shallow versus a deep DoF. I’ll also discuss what I have been gravitating toward in my own work.
