Why are some of my proofs in black and white?

Personally I LOVE black and white photos. However I can't determine what you like and do not like. Sometimes you will receive proofs that are black and white. Some of them do not include a color copy of the same image and others do. If a color copy is not included there are some reasons for that, but the biggest reason is usually that the color is wonky. Meaning that the color of the skin may be off from that of the background or that there is too much of one color and when you try to decrease it, it makes it look funny. Another reason may be because as an artist I believe some images are intended to be in black and white. If you get a proof that is in black and white and no color copy, I can let you know if I can work out the color issues or see if there is another reason on why I chose black and white only. I will charge an extra small fee to try and fix the image if you prefer it in color. However, I do not charge extra to make a color picture black and white. If you have any questions do not hesitate to ask! I am very open about your session and feel free to tell me if you do not like black and white, however I may still include them if I see an image that is too cute to pass!!
