According to Wikipedia the golden hour is the first and last hour of sun during the day when a specific photographic effect is achieved with the quality of the light during these hours. Typically, lighting will be softer and warm in hue, and shadows will be quite pronounced as a result of the sun being so close to parallel with the horizon. This is because the sun light is traveling further through the atmosphere and coming from a less harsh side angle, instead of straight down.
Well I had a photo session utilzing this beautiful light last week. I just love how these images turned out! We traveled to a couple different areas to get these shots. I’m so grateful that J was patient enough with me to continue taking pictures. Thank you!





Okay J and M your online gallery is going to be finished in just a couple days. Thanks again for enjoying the “golden hour” with me. You did awesome! These images speak for themselves.
