Aimee over at This Darling Day challenged me to a Black and White Photo Challenge on Instagram. Since I feel like indoor photos, night time photos, and black and whites are my struggle, I welcomed this challenge with open arms. Read: must practice more!

How do you get your black and photos communicate nostalgia, beauty, and all things story-telling? I'm open to any and all tips! Is it more about catching stellar light? Contrasts?
Also, go check out Aimee's black and white photos. So beautiful! Also, linking-up with the wonderful Kathryn from Team Whitaker for Week in my Life 2014.
I love the first one of the your two little ones in the hall. I love black and white, thanks for the nudge to take more.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jenny! I know, this is just another area I need more intentional practice on. I love black and whites, just don't have the eye for it yet. Or at least the ability to capture what I see in my head. Glad you felt a little nudge. Nudges are fun :)
