Answer to Question 1

The Renaissance harnessed the principles of the camera obscura in projecting and capturing an image. The still camera began preserving those images through long exposure times and bulky equipment in the form of heliographs and daguerreotypes. Advancements were made with the Kodak snapshot camera for easy, quick capture of images, and the development of color film, which was used mainly for advertising and commercial venues and was adopted later by serious photographers.

Answer to Question 2

In portrait photography, the emphasis is on the face as well as the personality, expression, and disposition. Techniques to consider are lighting, tonal values, position and placement of sitter, and photographic quality of the image, such as whether it is grainy, sharp, blurry, and so on.
