Ted,

A fine sentence, but I only can disagree with it.
BTW, I think the B&W is often use as an easy way to achieve a more dramatic 
result.

I hope the colours and clothes don't prevent to perceive their soul...
Best regards,

  Hi Dave,

  Yes it's mine and it's this way:

   

  "When you photograph people in colour you photograph their clothes.

   

  But when you photograph people in B&W, you photograph their souls!"

   

  Mine for a great number of years.

  Thanks for asking and your compliment. J

  ted

  Hey Ted,

    Did you coin this phrase?   "If you're photographing in color you show the 
color of their clothes - if you use black & white, you will show the color of 
their soul"

   

  If you did, good one. If not, do you know who did? 

   

  Dave
