[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 713036, member: 9240"] ^^^ Pretty much this ^^^ For a single portrait I don't think it matters, and I would say that not using one allows the photographer to explore a wider variety of angles to better capture the subject. I can't for the life of me remember who the photographer or the subject was (someone famous) but the photographer talked about getting very close and very low to capture a sense of power in the photo. The ability to play with focal length on a 70-200mm, say, can give you different looks even as you fill the frame in a similar manner. For a series of portraits meant to be cohesive across subjects then yes, a tripod is probably best. [/QUOTE]
