Welcome to Blacksilver Photography theme for WordPress.
Blacksilver photography WordPress theme is designed with professional photographers in mind. It uses a minimalist yet attractive design approach so that your photos are always in the center.
Blacksilver photography theme is built with page layouts for fullscreen slideshows, portfolios, proofing, events, blog and and landing pages.
