B&W Portraits






















I am Avril Lavigne if you can't tell... I realized after that I should have straightened my hair but eh. I procrastinated with my self as not self because I did not want to walk around in weird makeup or anything. After doing the pictures I was mad at myself for not doing them way earlier.
The second picture is of my fiancee Vincent. Many of my shots with him ended up blury. Grrrrrrr but I got some good ones. This one I had just told him to take off his glasses and he was rubbing his eyes because the light was "too bright." I made him stop moving and took a picture! I knew this was my shot as soon as I took it but still took more photos. After going through them all this one is still my fav!
I have learned that converting pictures into black and white is NOT a fun thing for me. I had a hard time getting what I wanted because once vibrant colors were now all grey and did not look good anymore. I tried to keep in mind when I was shooting that they would be in black and white later, but did not realize how much work actually went into making them the way I like or at least close to it.
