This outstanding video lesson was created for you by Ian Hippolyte, and it will provide you with five valuable suggestions to assist you in making better black-and-white photographs. The advice that Hippolyte gave about preparing in advance for the black-and-white cut struck me as particularly pertinent. It is common practice for us to choose to convert a photograph to black and white during the editing process. While there is certainly nothing wrong with this practice, it is frequently possible to play to the strengths of a black-and-white image if you prepare ahead.
Because they lack color, these photographs must rely more on elements such as contrast and texture to be engaging. Consequently, if you can organize elements such as clothes, cosmetics, and lighting to emphasize those qualities, you may ensure that you end up with the best possible outcome.
