Our front foyer is done in a black and white theme. This past weekend we added two more black and white photographs that I wanted to share with you. Here are close-ups and information on the two additions.
Mr. H took this photo two years ago. I loved it as soon as I saw it. It took two years of
The other addition was taken in Paris. It is a silhouette of someone walking through one of the entrances to the Musée du Louvre. Silhouettes are one of Mr. H's favorite things to photograph and this one happens to be me. He dropped back a few steps behind me to snap this photo. I like how the glass pyramid lines up with the Louvre Palace, blending old with new. The way one side of the gate is open and one side is closed makes it feel like I was granted the privilege to walk through, that the gate was opened just for me.
As you can see from the top photo there is still room for one more photo at the top of the wall. We're still trying to decide on a photo that we love enough to hang there.
If you're interested in closer looks of the other photos, you can visit a previous post about them here. Just scroll down towards the bottom of the post. I hope you've enjoyed seeing the new additions!

I love both your new photos SO much. I love the way the kid is kind of just looking like he didnt care ... love how his clothes, tattoos & the engine all kinda blend together. Also love the one of you in Paris - very beautiful. Yes there is definately room for one more - thanks for sharing. Have a great week :-) Julie x0x
ReplyDeleteHe definitely looks like Leo (I'm sure he gets that all the time). The photo has quite a timeless quality about it. Amazing shots!
ReplyDeleteWhat great photos! Love them in your foyer. You can't beat black and white photography.

Love the new additions Khamaany! Mr. H is truly talented (I think I said that the last time), please tell him that!
ReplyDeleteThey are both stunning in their different ways and a wonderful addition to your collection. We, too, have pictures waiting to be framed. Some have been waiting for years. A project for the autumn perhaps?
ReplyDeleteI love your black and white photos! They make a wonderful collage. Mr. H has captured some awesome photos!!

Very dramatic gallery wall, Khammany. Black and white is both classic and modern, I would say and the two colours together ground a room, regardless of its decorating style. Yes, he looks like Leo, and I think Mr. H has captured a movie star in the making pose! Thanks for sharing your photos!

Khammany,
ReplyDeleteI really like the picture of the young man standing next to his car. This is a picture to be framed for sure. I'm not sure if I mentioned to you, but I took a Black and White Photography class many years ago, and developed my own pictures. It was a fun class, and to me, there is nothing more beautiful than a black and white photo. This must look so nice in your foyer. Please tell your husband it is a special one.
Love,

LOVE that black/white pic of the guy and VW!! Your B/W looks lovely on your wall........Hubbys doin' great photo shoots! Blessings~~~Roxie
ReplyDeleteIt looks great really classic. I think any photos look good black and white or even in sepia. And matching black frames make it look very gallery inspired. I have done the same for my hallway, on one side are my partners photos and on the other are mine. I love it :)
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! Mr. H is very talented!
ReplyDeleteThe photo wall is beautiful. I love how you kept everything to black and white; it's so striking. I love both of these photos and the stories behind them. The one of the guy pumping gas is so cool and yes, he totally looks like Leonardo Dicaprio! I love the photo of you too; it's so beautiful. Your husband is super talented.
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures! I love black and white photography.
ReplyDeletelove the car picture especially. Black and white photos make a much bolder statement than color. Aren't you lucky to have your own photographer!
ReplyDeleteYour black and white photo gallery looks marvelous. How lucky you are to have Mr. H to take such outstanding pictures. Mr. H has a great eye for framing a picture. He captured your silhouette in such a lovely symmetrical shot . A picture that will not only remind you of a beautiful trip to Paris but will also grace your wall as a work of art.
