    world?

Why Should I Subscribe to La Noir Image?

We’ve had this question come up before. With so much free content on the web already, why should you subscribe? Well, here are a number of fantastic reasons:

  • La Noir Image is a premium, carefully done publication around themes in black and white photography.
  • Each month, a random subscriber wins a generous prize. But now, we’ve got a challenge based Facebook group due to reader request
  • $15/year is less than a good glass of whiskey. A YEAR!!!! That’s like $1/month.
  • Premium content on La Noir Image isn’t anywhere else on the web; especially with the way that we do it. Trust me, I’ve done loads of research on this stuff before I put stories together.
  • Every subscriber gets access to free Lightroom presets
  • $40/year gets access to the website’s premium content and a special black and white tutorial video coming this year. That’s like $3.33 a month when broken down.
  • $100/year gets you the premium content, the tutorial video and a personalize critique of 20 of your images from me. That’s around $8.33 a month when broken down.
  • Only one monthly email; which means I try my very best to not bother anyone or flood your inbox.
  • Completely ad free!!!!! La Noir Image is 100% fully funded by reader subscriptions

This is the perfect complementary content to the Phoblographer if you’re looking to get deeper into photography in ways that the industry’s higher thinkers do. And you should head over to our website and go subscribe.
