The camera can photograph thought.

Monochromatic Month is almost over! Only 5 days left! There's still time to join the colorless fun! :)

 

Tip: One of the qualities I love most about black & white photography is the feel of refinement a monochromatic palette conveys. In addition to that sense of polish, there's also an ambiance and timeless style you seldom find in color photos (this is why B&W is a popular choice for weddings). Regardless of your subject matter, try shooting in monochrome and you'll see not only does it add intimacy and immediacy—it brings the moment closer.

 

Happy Monday! Thank you all for your continued feedback & support!
