When I’m working as an engagement photographer photographing Houston couples, I sometimes create polyptych (POL-ip-tik) portraits.
Polyptychs are photographic images displayed together. Polyptych types include:
- diptych (two photos)
- triptych (three photos)
- quadriptych (four photos)
- pentaptych (five photos)
- hexaptych (six photos)
- heptaptych (seven photos)
- octaptych (eight photos)
- enneaptych (nine photos)
- decaptych (ten photos)
I usually create diptychs, triptychs, and quadriptychs but sometimes participants and creative ideas drive different results.
