Simple Black & White Portraits

There’s nothing I like better than a simple black & white portrait. Here’s a couple I really liked from a recent portrait shoot. These were both shot in the open shade against a white wall. Both subjects are holding a silver reflector, positioned below and just out of the frame. I use this simple technique a lot for this kind of shot as it gives a really crisp look to the light. Simple B&W conversion and toning was done in Lightroom 2.
