[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 814001, member: 48483"] I see mainly desaturated to b&w with extra contrast. Shooting film they would use a red filter on lens to add more contrast. You can apply a red filter in the post-processing when converting to b&w. Use less diffused lighting, more direct light. Sharpen rather than soften details like what is more traditional with portraits. Edit: I looked more carefully at the link. Only a couple of the portraits are embracing a harsher light setup. Mostly he is lighting his models normally with some diffusion. But I think a snoot on a strobe would add some mood. [/QUOTE]
