Photo Noir : Kenneth re-introduced these Black and White Fine Art Portraits to fellow professionals back in 2010. He called them 'Photo Noir' It has since taken the UK portrait scene by storm. The images speak about emotion, depth and absolute simplicity. Smiles are not the order of the day, serious studies work best in this style of portraiture. The ‘Photo Noir’ session is always planned with complete simplicity in mind. Clothing is kept dark to maximise the impact of the image. The idea is for the faces to be the main feature of the portrait so a low key effect is employed. This is the most emotional style of portraiture and as such is always presented in a Fine Art Black and White Presentation. Kenneth has teamed up with one of the biggest and most innovative laboratories in Europe, Loxley Colour of Glasgow, to create a brand new range of 'Photo Noir' Wall Art Products which compliment Kenneth's stunning fine art portraits.
