When to use a black-and-white filter?
No. 1
Professional Portraits
When showcasing professional headshots or portraits, using a black-and-white filter can enhance the overall look and feel. It minimizes distractions, allowing viewers to focus on the subject's facial expressions and features.
No. 2
Product Photography
For high-end or luxury products, a black-and-white filter can exude a timeless and classy aesthetic. It removes any color distractions and allows the product's design, craftsmanship, and details to shine. This approach can be particularly effective for items like jewelry, high-fashion apparel, or premium home decor.
No. 3
Interior Design
When capturing architectural spaces or interior designs, black and white can highlight the lines, shapes, and textures of the environment. It imparts a classic, sophisticated look that can be especially suitable for showcasing upscale properties or luxury hotels.
Noir Nouveau: Showcase your product
Introducing a black and white filter in product photography adds an edgy, high-contrast vibe that brings out details and textures of the item, giving potential customers a view of its craftsmanship. Not to mention, it infuses a timeless, cool aesthetic that elevates the product's allure, making it a must-have for trendsetters alike.
Refine your images
Open the adjustment menu in the app to further customize your black-and-white image. Boost contrast for a bold aesthetic, brighten an image, or even remove the background. There's an endless array of ways to personalize your photos with various image effects that are offered with Photoroom.

People love Photoroom
Affordable and efficient
Photoroom has turned my one-bedroom apartment into a professional photo studio. Rather than spending hours or thousands of dollars editing photos, Photoroom allows me to create pro photos in seconds, so not only does it make my photos look great, but it’s affordable & efficient.

Suitable photos for my website
I love being able to remove backgrounds from my pictures. I sell online, and when I take pictures, it's not always in a clean, uncluttered environment. I like how Photoroom gets rid of all of that and allows me to change the background to something more pleasing to the eye and suitable to place on my website.

A total game changer!
I have been using Photoroom for almost 2 years now, mainly for Instagram. Photoroom is so user-friendly and makes my work complete. The Photoroom group on Facebook is super, with lots of tips and tricks and good communication with Photoroom if there is a problem.

How do you put a black-and-white filter on a picture?
To put a black-and-white filter on a picture, you can use photo editing software like Adobe Photoshop by opening the image and selecting the "Black & White" adjustment option. Alternatively, mobile apps like Instagram or Photoroom offer black-and-white filters that can be applied with a few taps. Simply upload the photo, apply the filter, make any adjustments, and download the edited image.
