Portrait work is a different job from landscape or product work, and portrait shooters tend to say so. Naming it is what makes this land.
Trade and profession shirts are specific on purpose. Someone who says they are a portrait photographer will not accept a near-miss title, and the closely related jobs each have their own version — that precision is the whole point of the joke.

Best for someone a few years into the work — long enough that the job has its own vocabulary and its own complaints. For a new starter it can read as presumptuous, and for someone who has left the trade it reads as nostalgia rather than a joke.
The technical side is learnable. Making a stranger comfortable enough to stop performing is what separates a portrait from a photograph of a face.
Lighting is a craft in itself, and portrait photographers can talk about it for a very long time.
Weddings and portraits overlap but are different jobs with different pressure.
The wording only works when it names the exact job, so it is worth checking before you buy. Postal Worker, Producer and Programmer each have their own page with their own designs, and there are more below.
