Fun Scrapbook Pages With Black and White Photos by Marcy Larsen
Add a little drama, extra texture, dimension and character to your photos. It is natural to reach for the color film when taking pictures instead of the black and white. But, even though color photos give you the beautiful realism, there is always a place for B&W photos too.
They have a brilliance of their own, and can transform a simple image into something more. Also, the black and white photos are less likely to fade over time like color photos.
Remember that practice makes perfect. Plan on shooting a lot of pictures before you master the art of B&W.
Lighting is everything.
Ambient or natural light works well with B&W photos. Turn off the flash and use the natural light that Mother Nature provides us.
Remember that black and white is not just for portraits. Just because it is “artsy” doesn’t mean that it can’t be fun. Experiment with candid shots at the beach, the zoo or a wedding reception.
Pay close attention to the composition by simply paying attention to the placement and number of objects you see in your viewfinder. With B&W photos, a simple composition works best. Capture patterns with recurring visual themes such as wooden fense.
Some of the special touches of a black and white photo are:
Color freedom
B&W photos match any decor or decorating theme you are looking for. It frees you to use colors that communicate a mood or feeling to enhance your images and stories.
Less is More
Simple backgrounds or silhouettes can add to your project. Weather it is decorations or a scrapbook, black and white will add that extra dimension that is needed to complete your work.
Emotional Beauty
A black and white photo naturally evokes the emotional traits that seem to get lost in the overwhelming hues of color of a color photo.
Remember that photography is an art and these B&W photos help you create art form the ordinary everyday things you see. Follow these few tips and you will create a masterpiece!
There are two different ways to get black and white photos these days. You can use your traditional camera and use a true B&W film or use your digital camera and have them developed in black and white. Either way, you will need to spend some time finding a developer that you trust or the quality of prints you want. Some developers may end up with a warm sepia tone or an icy blue tone, once you find the developer; you are on your way to creating beautiful pictures for you and your family to treasure for years to come.
