It is a matter of lighting. Very strong rim lights, with a soft fill and key light from the front. The black and white look I'd accomplish in post using After Effects or Photoshop. Either one should allow you to get the right look.
I'd also render in layers. Render your background separately from your characters and then composit them together in AE or Photoshop. Poser Pro has a Python Script that allows you to separate the passes for each light--this may give you more control over your final image when composited in AE or Photoshop.
