Mumbai Wedding Photographer / Black and White pre-wedding photography



















































Pre-Wedding photography in Black & White.

There is something very classic about black and white photography. Black and White strips the image of all it’s distractions and you can concentrate on the emotion that these photos have. 

Most couples ask me these days whether they’ll get any pictures in black & white. Though I shoot colour all the time the decision to give the couple certain images in black & white is taken at the post-production stage.


Most wedding pictures will work only in color, the mehndi, baraat, the pheras, haldi, sindor and other rituals are full of color and that will not translate well in black and white, however pre wedding photos, lend themselves to black and white.
