Once you create a Photo Album, notice that the default template for Photo Album is a black background with white text. You can go ahead and use this template – but you can easily change the appearance of the slides by applying a Theme to your Photo Album presentation. You can of course do it outside the Photo Album presentation — in the normal way that you apply a Theme. But you can also apply a Theme right within the Photo Album dialog box.
Learn how to apply a Theme to your Photo Album presentation in PowerPoint 2013 for Windows.

The Photo Album feature allows you to insert hundreds of pictures on your slides with just two or three clicks. And these pictures can be edited in myriad ways. You can change the picture layouts, add captions, change pictures to black and white, etc. Additionally, you can also change the frame shapes of the pictures, to give them an effect such as drop shadows, or a black border, or even a picture that’s contained in a frame with rounded corners.
Learn about the various frame shapes in your Photo Album presentation.

There is no doubt if you are using a rich, vibrant colored picture than olde-worlde black and white for your presentation, the colored pictures will attract more attention. However, the visibility in terms of contrast is far superior in a black and white photo — artists and photography purists have long hailed the black and white picture as a creative medium. You may want to extend this creative medium to your Photo Album presentations — fortunately, a click or two is all that is required to create an inspirational black and white Photo Album in PowerPoint 2013.
