Well, since white is the absence of color, it will match any color.
And since black is the combination of all colors mixed together, it will match any color.
You might want to take something in that room that you really like and choose a color from that. Make sure your color matches the other colors in that room. You don't need to worry about the black and white. It'll fit in, don't worry.
I do suggest you think about a soft warm color, such as cranberry, pink, sunflower, etc. Choose a paint color that is identified with two names such as cranberry cream, sahara beige. Paint colors with 2 names are complex colors and always look better. Enjoy... Try and keep it a bit zen and you'll lolove it.

That is a good idea. Make sure you get matching frames so the pictures all have some consistent feature. You can buy travel books or calendars and use those pictures to frame for your walls.

You can paint it any color you would like to. you can always add complimetary matting to the framed photos to coordinate to your walls and furnishings as accent pieces. Red with black and white looks amazing. you don't have to do just plain old boring white walls to make the frames look good. Good luck!

I painted mine a very cool, very light blue, and hung black frames with black & white pictures and I love how it turned out.

I just saw a stunning room on hgtv with pearl gray walls,white trim and taupe accents...black and white photos in plain frames would look great on walls like this.

No white...but any color will work out in the neutral family and pay attention to lighting.

Yes a white would work well but also nearly every color would..keep in mind what you already have (the colors, window treatments,etc.) and work with that.
