Create DRAMATIC Black & White PORTRAITS in Snapseed | Dragan Effect | SNAPSEED TUTORIAL

Today I am going for a Dragan effect inspired by Lee Jeffries portfolio. Though there are a lot of videos showing on how to achieve this look in Photoshop, I am here trying it on Snapseed mobile app. Hope you all find the video useful.

I use Snapseed a lot and really enjoy your videos. You really have a great command of it's features and uses. I love the way, you think "on the fly". Keep up the good work.

[@NavEditsOfficial]

Thanks for your words Peter :)

[@MrDsalomon]

Wow, what an effect! What NavEdits creates here is not simply a dramatic image, it is an intense portrait created by adding both mood and emotion to the original photo. This is an excellent example of black and white portraiture. Photographers have long known that, if done correctly, converting an image from color to black-and-white (or in general to monochromatic) makes the viewer pause and give the result a second look. We explain this by saying that removing the colors forces the viewer to concentrate on the emotions expressed by the subject of the image. (The term monochrome refers to color combinations that use only tones of a single color, such as green-and-white or green-and-red.) We all owe much to NavEdits for his original examples of the power of Snapseed. Thanks!

Thanks a lot David!

Very nice work sir! Wasn't possible the last step of editing be done in Snapseed also instead of Lightroom?

[@FortSantiago]

You caught my attention man before anything else, i m planning to make some street photography and make it as my hobby for the future I love to enhance everything I captured photo or pick some free download images from leading website such as pexels etc. however because of your tutorials I learn a lot of things behind of this snapseed, and I'm very happy because it was so friendly to follow as well thank you man because of your nice and intelligent work you give me hope to make what I wanted to do. Keep it up, bruh.

[@talhamustafa07]

Nav, does Snapseed app support Raw files ( not small or large JPEG images) from DSLR or it doesn't?

[@NavEditsOfficial]

Snapseed supports raw but only .DNG files. There is an extra Develop menu when you edit these files.

[@annkm3153]

Thank you for this tutorial. I’ve recently edited some photos and made them black and white. The prints I ordered came back with a green hue. Do you know if the photos edited in snapseed save with the sRBG profile or if there is a way to do that through snapseed? Thank you.

[@NavEditsOfficial]

Not sure why this is happening. Other alternative to fix this is to share the same image to Lightroom app (it's free, available on app store) and then export the image from there. Lightroom does have the sRGB option profile for saving images.

Video was helpful indeed. But the photo that you chose was not suitable IMO. Sorry for criticism/disagreement. But I respect you coz I learn many things from you. I love clicking n editing portraits. My most loved area in photography. I wish you choose some other portraits as well n demonstrate the tools. 👍👍 🙏🙏 🎉🎉

thanks so much, looking for this earlier. But I am afraid my results will turn into zombie looking after few edits made

You should definitely try though. Snapseed is flexible enough while editing. You can always go back and change the intensity as needed.
