Black & White

There is something emotional about viewing all of your images in black and white. I've never done it before, but this family wanted all black and white. I get a photography magazine, and in it one of the photographers had taken shots of generations of women in a family. To focus on them he had them dress in black with black background. This is what this family did and the results are stunning. As I was going through each image trying to choose my favorites (very hard to do) I started to get teary eyed, and I have only met the family once. Many of the photos I chose were serious faces. This family was super happy and fun, but their solemn faces were just stunning, I had to post them. Sometime I do a shoot and think---I'm an ok photographer, and then I do others and I think--wow I can really do this (which is a shock to me since I have never, EVER, been artistic). This was one. We took these shots under their back porch for fear of rain. I'm glad we did it, it was great new experience, and I love the result. I had asked the mom if she had any chairs we could use, and jokingly she said--"We have a luv sac" and I said--"Go get it". It was fun, made some great shots. So check out this gorgeous family . . . all in black & white.
