candid portraits
Unstaged people photos
Candid portraits are photographs of people captured in natural, unposed moments rather than formal arrangements.
The subject may be unaware of the camera or simply not performing for it: The wedding photographer mixed formal shots with candid portraits of guests laughing and dancing.
The style aims to reveal authentic personality rather than composed presentation.
