I go back and forth a lot on black and white photography. My parents, married in 1945 as the war was ending, had their images only in black and white and customary to the day, had the images hand painted with color. When I look back at the photography I think very much that these images are so timeless. and yet looking at the images that our brides send us I think that the look is contemporary at minimum. For the fortunate few – some weddings are shot with a few cameras and we get to see the same angles or near angles of simultaneous imagery. Then I can’t help but think, these images they send look ageless. What’s your preference?
