The Best Time of Day for a Photo Session/ Bay Area Photographer
Have you ever looked at a photo and immediately felt all warm, fuzzy and happy inside? Well, often that magical feel is because of the light. My absolute favorite time of the day to shoot a session is about an hour or two before sunset. The sun happens to be at a great angle and gives gorgeous color to play with. The light is soft, warm, dimensional and just flat out magical. This time of day is know as “Golden hour” and is the best time of day to schedule photo sessions.
During this time, the lighting is absolutely perfect and your images are bound to turn out magical.
The perks:
· Soft light allows for haze and light flares which adds variety to your images
· No soft shadows or squinty eyes from the blinding sun at high noon
· Shooting later in the summer makes for cooler temperatures
· Warmer tones are generally more flattering on people
All of these images were taken during Golden Hour. Can you feel the magic?!?
