Features: During the booming era of commercial portrait photography, China held three national "Top Ten Portrait Photographers" selection events from 1993 to 1999, showcasing the overall landscape of mainland portrait photographers and displaying outstanding portrait photography works. People began to demand higher standards for portrait photography, and photographers enthusiastically engaged in active creative work. Professional photographers should take the lead in this era and dedicate themselves to researching the artistic creation of portrait photography. Professional photographers should step forward in this era and focus on studying the artistic creation principles and development direction of portrait photography.
