Photography Question

B&W photos w/inserted color


Is there a name for creating a photo in B&W & adding back in only one or two items with color? I want to ask my wedding photographer if she can do this with some of the wedding photos, but I don't know what it's called. Thanks

  I call it selective coloring or hand tinting.

  Believe or not it's still called "monochrome." One can add one color [various shading OK] to a B&W picutre [print] in competitions hosted by NJ Federation of Camera Clubs and, I believe, PSA.

Not sure what you might call "the process."
