Which leaves me wondering whether "get it over with" drivers' license portraits are the most honest? Certainly the most utilitarian...
Seriously, perhaps it's that as photographers, we are too concerned with the work being good to get it right. Rick said it well up above, but the contrivance is as often ours as theirs, and I plead "guilty as sin".
Still, a lovely portrait is a lovely portrait regardless, and perhaps we viewers shouldn't always be so nosy as to demand to peer into someone else's soul for the sake of our inner artistic voyeur...
