Color or B/W?

Color or B/W? That’s not usually a question for me as I give my clients both versions of a picture BUT just for fun… let’s play color or b/w?

I love this family session! The leaves are this vibrant yellow and I am just in love with these colors. For me it was a no brainer… of course I like the color versions better. Who doesn’t love fall colors? Looking at the b/w pictures though makes me swoon too. The contrast is so beautiful and it just feels so timeless. It is almost as if the yellow was taking the attention of the subjects… like the yellows are the highlights of the pictures. But with the b/w versions, the little girl becomes the main subject again. Does that make sense? What do you think? Color or b/w? Or does it depend on the picture?

Which version would you hang in your living room? I can’t believe I am saying this but I would frame the black and white version!

Clara's One Year Session - Cincinnati Photographer

I photographed Clara for her Newborn session, six month session and now again for her One Year Session. Clara is always so easy to photograph. She is such a happy and content baby! I love the dress her mom bought her on Etsy and I had the headband in the studio!
