Color vs. black and white - differences in portrait photography | Thomas Adorff for Tamron

Live shooting contribution as part of our photo days

Thomas Adorff

Color or black and white? This decision can decisively change the expression and mood of a portrait. In this practice-oriented workshop, Thomas Adorff shows how strongly the image effect, emotion and aesthetics are influenced by the choice between a color and monochrome look. Together we will photograph, compare and experiment creatively - for a better understanding of when color is convincing and when the black and white look shows its particular strength.
