Learn how to use natural light to your advantage when working on outdoor black and white portraits. The old master painters had a special word - chiaroscuro - meaning 'light-dark' for the dramatic quality of shadow in portraits. This concept, as it relates to black and white portraiture, will be fully explained. The importance of 'catch lights' in eyes 'bokeh' for dreamy, soft backgrounds will also be addressed, as will the advantage of shooting in 'open shade'. Portraits will be taken with black and white conversion in mind, but can also be enjoyed in color. Come along and discover how to add mood, artistry, and drama to your outdoor portraits.
