3) Draper

Answer 1

Draper is credited with capturing the first female portrait of Dorothy Catherine Draper using the daguerreotype technique.

Step-by-step explanation:

The photographer credited with taking the first female portrait, with Dorothy Catherine Draper as the model, is Draper. This portrait was captured using the daguerreotype technique, developed by Louis Daguerre after his collaborative work with Joseph Nicephore Niepce. Henrietta Johnston, often mistaken for the one involved in the first female portrait due to similarities in the surnames, was indeed an early female artist but not responsible for Dorothy's portrait.
