Hi there,

I've seen these attached photos and was wondering how the background was made black on the following photos. I know the wedding photo was taken against a brick wall. The baby photo I'm not too sure. But it looks great with the baby fading into the black. Any ideas how this was done?!

probably done in RAW...my guess!

Thanks
