Learn The Secrets To Stunning Black & White Portraits

Portrait photography is timeless. And till 1935 black-and-white photography was the only choice.

You probably know the prominent photographers who mastered the art of black-and-white photography like Ansel Adams, Henri Cartier Bresson, Robert Capa, and many more. 

Other than shooting in color, you don’t get your viewer’s attention with bright colors. So, you have to play with light and contrast. This black and white photography class by Frank Doorhof will cover all these aspects in detail.

The power of black and white pictures is that because of the lack of color, you capture/see your own emotion. The contrast and light set the mood. 

People or models are great subjects to make black-and-white pictures. To get more contrast ladies can put on a hat, sunglasses, or headbands, while men often have charismatic jawlines or wrinkles.

And both can play with texture and patterns in their clothing. Which will make your picture stand out.  

In this class, you see everything from lighting setups and how Frank coaches the model to the results and retouching. This black and white photography class will cover it all. If you are someone who wants to excel at black and white portrait photography, this is a golden opportunity! Sign up to this exclusive class by world-renowned photographer Frank Doorhof now!
