How Golden Hour Will Make Your Wedding Photography Shine
September, 1 2017
Golden hour is that magical time when the natural world aligns to give you the perfect lighting for your wedding photography. Just one hour before sundown, golden hour comes from the hazy amber glow of the sun. Soft and diffused, this gorgeous lighting is truly a photographers dream come true.
When planning your shot list, be sure to talk with your Lily & Lime wedding photographer to strategize accordingly!
If you’re having an outdoor wedding, take advantage of golden hour by finding somewhere lush and secluded. The hazy glow of the soon-to-be setting will frame you perfectly - and finding a spot with plenty of vibrant greenery will give your wedding photography an idyllic vibe. Whether you find a spot in the middle of the woods or strike a pose in front of the waterfront, there’s no way you can go wrong once golden hour hits.
Having a city wedding? No sweat! You can still get in on all the magnificence of the golden hour. Hop up to the rooftop for a wedding photography shot that combines radiant light with an enviable view.
