    Portrait Photography | Black and White Photography Tips

    © 2008 Wazari Wazir | Portrait of My Son | Mr Big Eyes When it comes to black and white portrait photography, I will always try to keep it simple.

I want to convert the photograph into black and white, so I will make sure all the element are there, I…
