Black-and-white photography is its own language. Separate from colour, it’s a poetry of light, tone, and texture. This workshop gives you the foundations and workflow for making striking monochrome images starting from colour or from black-and-white. And you’ll be able to use any editing software.
What you’ll learn
The essential principles behind great B&W conversion
How colour channels influence greyscale tones
Building a tonal foundation for impact and depth: levels and curves
Practical order of operations for best quality and efficiency
Dodging, burning, and local contrast control for subject emphasis
Adapting your workflow for print, web, or archival
Why it’s different
This is app agnostic — no step-by-step tied to one program. Instead, you’ll gain a transferable skillset that works whether you edit in Lightroom, Capture One, Affinity, Photoshop, or anything else.
Who it's for
Photographers wanting to refine their monochrome work
Colour shooters curious about B&W’s creative potential
