Mysteries Of Color: What To Choose For Your Glamour Images
There is an ultimate question that vexes all glamour photographers, from beginners to gurus. Easy it sounds, simple it looks, but making a certain decision is as difficult as producing a perfect image from the very first shot. This question is "Color or black and white?"
Most of its history photography has been monochrome - and nobody really concerned about bright and vivid colors. At that time beauty photos were distinguishable masterpieces, yet none was performed in full color.
With colors becoming another vital factor of a picture's aesthetic quality, glamour photography altered dramatically. At present, digital technologies allow many artists to depict reality in myriads of shades and tones of color - and many of them choose to remain "on the bright side" of glamour art.
So, let us investigate this matter and find the solution to using colors and black and white efficiently and wisely. Just as almost any dilemma in Beauty Photography, this one is mostly about the artist's purpose, not some firmly-established rules or canons.
For a start, remember, there is no aspect in which black and white beauty photography can be less difficult than the colorful one, or vice versa. You cannot possibly make your artistic simpler by choosing what appears to be less demanding - forget it.
Light is crucial in both color and old school black and white photography. Unless you spend necessary time and effort to arrange good light for your work, photographs will keep being flat and uninteresting. It always happens so. Whether you are a fan of old school or prefer shooting in color, light is equally significant for your artistic success.
There are differences, of course, though they are subjective and mainly concern the impression that viewers will make of your glamourous creation. There are several issues you might consider on this matter:
- Colors are excellent for placing accents you want your viewers to concentrate on. People are attracted to brightly looking pictures; composition is easy to arrange based on the colors of its key elements; nuances of color are transformed in the image's atmosphere and mood, allowing you to make it whatever you would like.
- Monochrome is more about textures and shapes, so less attention is paid to the nuances of shades. Black and white photography enables the viewer to notice the interaction of light and objects within the frame, allowing to see those patterns more clearly. Classic black and white helps the artist to create an ethereal, enigmatic and very atmospheric image, this is the beauty of it. Besides, it helps to conceal unnatural colors and shades, so if your model ended up somewhat yellowish on the photo, you can always turn to gray-scale.
- Of course, your photo doesn't have to be strictly black and white to make an impression of a well-performed artistic work. Some glamour artists find sepia a very suitable way to traduce their artistic manner to the viewer. You might also try other techniques: duotone, infrared, high-key etc. There are many tutorials on the Web, so nothing really limits your creativity.
- Colors also can supplement the gray-scale image to emphasize some elements of its composition, it may be a cliche, but why should someone's superstition forbid you from using it? As long as it works, you can turn to even the most banal approaches, if you can produce something original and unique, it doesn't matter. Bright fragments within monochrome immediately draw attention and can prove invaluable for creating great atmosphere; black and white elements in the whirlpool of colors and tones work almost the same and may prove useful as well.
You should know that many lances have been broken on this very subject, but the choice is entirely yours, despite what fans and haters of color or monochromatic photography say. In fact, you don't need to choose, if something serves your purpose best of all, corresponds to the mood of your photo and delivers your message efficiently, you should have no doubts about what you do. It isn't methods and schools that create masterpieces, it's people, their vision and their talents.
