Several weeks back, I read a post that Stephanie (from Ni
Hao Y’all) did on photography. One
thing she said in particular that day really stuck with me. I’m paraphrasing, but she said the
author of a good photography book she was reading suggested that unless color
is going to add to the photo, it
should be presented in black and white.
I had the honor of doing a photo shoot for my friend’s
littles the other day, and the simple beauty of these two girls just blew me
away. I’m a HUGE fan of black and
white photography anyway, so it was no surprise I preferred the black and white
in these as well.
As I was editing, I really
liked some that I left in color, but the ones in black and white just
radiated the pure joy, beauty, youth, and innocence of these sweet sisters. I hope the simplicity of these precious moments caught on
film are a treasure for their Mommy for many years to come!
