The Power of Natural Light
Natural light has a unique way of bringing softness and depth to portraits, especially when used as backlighting. During my session with Hannah, I embraced this technique, pairing it with a simple backdrop to create stunning black and white images that feel both timeless and ethereal.
By positioning Hannah in front of a large window, I allowed the soft, diffused daylight to wrap around her, creating a glowing outline that beautifully separated her from the backdrop. This technique added depth and a dreamlike quality to the images while emphasizing the contrast between light and shadow.
The Elegance of Black & White
Stripping away color focused the attention on Hannah’s expression, the play of light across her features, and the subtle textures in the image. Black and white photography brings out emotion in a way that feels raw and authentic, making each frame feel like a piece of art.
The result? A collection of luminous portraits that showcase the beauty of simplicity. If you’re interested in creating your own timeless backlit portraits, reach out and let’s make it happen!
