Most wedding photographers shoot in colour and<br />
digitally convert some of the images into black and<br />
white using editing software. They can also convert<br />
black and white digital images back into colour,<br />
which black and white film was unable to do.<br />
BLACK & WHITE<br />
<strong>With</strong> the wonderful colour and<br />
digital image technology available,<br />
it’s often a surprise that people still<br />
love black and white photographs.<br />
But they provide exceptional detail,<br />
dramatic contrast between dark and<br />
light as well as subtle shades of grey<br />
and offer an ageless look that looks<br />
great for decades to come. Current<br />
interest in vintage and retro<br />
weddings has made black and white<br />
images even more popular and<br />
once framed, they make a timeless<br />
display that suits any décor.<br />
SEPIA IMAGES<br />
The red-brown tones of sepia<br />
images are usually associated with<br />
old photos but the technique<br />
has been popular for decades.<br />
Its return to popularity has now<br />
been aided by the development<br />
of sepia filters in digital cameras.<br />
The effect was achieved by<br />
photographic “toning” – a<br />
chemical process during<br />
printing, but today sepia images<br />
are effectively produced using<br />
digital filters or post-production<br />
photo-shop software programmes.<br />
SELECTIVE COLOUR<br />
Sometimes referred to as “spot<br />
colour”, this technique is an<br />
image editing technique where<br />
a colour photo is predominantly<br />
converted to black and white,<br />
but leaves an area of the photo<br />
or an item in colour. Selective<br />
colour is in popular usage for<br />
advertising but can produce<br />
eye catching wedding photos<br />
where flowers or a car remain<br />
in colour when everything else<br />
is black and white.<br />
SOFT FOCUS<br />
<strong>This</strong> film and photographic<br />
technique features a deliberate<br />
blurring of definition. It is used<br />
to create a dreamlike quality to<br />
the image and is understandably<br />
popular with bridal couples for<br />
their wedding photographs.<br />
Be guided by your<br />
professional wedding<br />
photographer on the style<br />
of photography they can<br />
produce for you and the costs<br />
associated with a variety of<br />
effects and techniques.<br />
