Below are 3 reasons why humans love sepia photography

1. Beautiful and Calm

Sepia photographs always adds a touch of perfection by accentuating the model's (person in the photograph) features, gives a smooth and glowing skin, makes the photo look calm and adds a lasting touch of beauty.

This, I believe is why historical romance novels always describes its characters as beautiful as the rising Sun. Because the rising sun has a sepia effect too.

Food for Thought: Have you ever seen anyone that looks ugly in black and white photos?

2. Classic and Vintage

Sepia images have a throwback feel, it suggests to the viewer that the image might have been shot in 60s or 70s were ladies wore royal dresses and men dressed like Jidenna.

3. Value

If an image is all of the above (1 and 2), it is only logical that it is valuable, imagine if a photographer portrays an African slave in a photograph, it will most likely come in a sepia form.
