Photography Classics: Artistic Black and White Conversion Techniques in Photoshop

Hi Britany! Very nice session - good composition and lighting, the model's eyes caught light in a very beautiful way. You could fine tune these images by masking the adjustment that is affecting red color in the photo. I'm guessing that after turning the image to b&amp;w with the Black and White adjustment layer, you have manipulated with the red slider to make the lips and hair darker. It works well for the lips and hair, however I'd mask the darkening result from the face - if you do that you will smoothen nicely the skin.  Make sure that you are working with a soft brush (low values for opacity and flow), to get a seamless blend and to improve transition between hair and the face.  Well done! :) Kasia
