Dramatic Portait

Anthony Sheler in Portrait, b&w, black and white, dramatic, female, sepia

I did a photo shoot with my lovely wife, Camille, to try some new techniques. We mostly did head shots and a few with the dogs, who seemed to want to be in every shot and yet not cooperate for the camera. That's pretty typical for Chewie and Mara. Aside from the dog shots, I got several keepers and a couple I really like. Below, is a back and white close up that I processed to give it a dramatic, classic look. There's a hint of sepia tone and fairly high contrast. It's one of my favorites from the shoot, but I've posted my top 4 in the portrait section of my portfolio
