How to Create a Dramatic Black & White Portrait
Download your FREE copy of The Rules of Composition eBook here:
https://www.joelgrimes.com/dramatic-black-and-white-portrait
In this episode, I’ll teach you the full workflow I used to edit a pretty flat photo of my neighbor into a dramatic final image!
Building drama using these techniques is unique because you have undestructive layers to go back to, and (I think) a better final result than some of the shortcuts out there.
I want you to see how easy it is to take an image and make it really dramatic and exciting.
Enjoy!
