Sorry steve, but my reply was extremely good advice. I used to be a full-time professional portrait shooter....
Looks like the joke's on me.
Derrel, I'm still shooting portraits. Been doin' so since the 70's. I've never heard of any such thinking in the professional community. In fact the first print ever I had "hang" at convention was a horizontal portrait of an individual.
And, really... I think the "portrait/landscape" terms came out of computer printers for less-than-stellar secretaries that don't know the difference between vertical and horizontal.
Here's a few from the PPA Loan Collection:
