Black-and-white portraits, no photographer
A black-and-white portrait removes everything except light and character: deep blacks, luminous highlights, window light raking across the face, a thoughtful expression and the fine grain of a silver-gelatin print. Black-and-white portraits from the Studio are shot that way, not desaturated afterwards.
You want a timeless photo for a wall or a jacket, with the tonal depth a phone's mono mode never manages. Attach a few selfies, choose the Black & White preset, and the studio returns black-and-white portraits with the lens, light and grade of that style wrapped around your own likeness. Try the same selfies across black-and-white portraits and two neighboring styles, compare them in Your photos, and finish the favorite with Relight and Upscale.

Made for when
- Your phone's monochrome mode is gray, not black and white
- You want a dramatic, gallery-like portrait rather than a snapshot
- A minimal dark background is hard to find at home
- A print for the wall needs real tonal range and fine grain

Polish skin and eyes with Face Retouch
Blemishes and redness go while pores, freckles and moles stay, so the photo still looks like you.

Enlarge the winner with Upscale
Detail is reconstructed rather than stretched, so the print holds up on the wall.
