Utilizing Golden Hour
March, 3 2016
In photography, the “golden hour” is known as a period of time shortly after sunrise or before sunset. It is sometimes called the “magic hour” as well, which you’ll easily understand why after seeing the photo session we chose below! Nevertheless, all you need to know is taking your photos during the golden hour is a sure way of getting truly magical images. It’s soft, warm, dreamy, and well, golden. During this precious time, the sun is set lower in the sky that produces a soft, diffused light, softening shadows, and adding dimension.
Did we mention that warmer tones are very flattering for portraits? The warm glow produced at this specific time is enchanting, alluring, and overall, captivating. We love the way you can capture the sun glowing through a bride’s veil. The flowing, transparent material is perfect for catching the sun’s rays. This is an easy way to add dimension and glamour to your outdoor portraits.

The glow bursting through the trees. The sun reflecting off of the snow. Bouncing rays through emerging flowers. No matter the time of year, this dreamy aura can be utilized to capture brilliant wedding photos. Try planning your portrait session with your wedding photographer around this special time of day!
