The first thing I hear when I mention Black and White to non-photographers is why shoot black and white now, when you can capture beautiful color with film or your digital cameras. Often, I do not even get into the discussion, because I know that it is a loosing battle. This makes me wonder whether Black and White photography is slowly winding down, shriveling and dying? Most people seem to have changed their way of thinking about Black and White, and I think digital technology is partly at fault. So, if you think that Black and White Photography has no place in today's world, please read on, and let me convince you otherwise. If you are planning a wedding, or another formal event, Black and White photography is something you are no doubt considering. As such it is important to understand why Black and White has been first choice for portraiture and event photographers for generations.
