Beth + Jonny
What is so special about golden hour?
Have you ever heard someone use the term golden hour, and felt lost, so you’ve turned to google? “What is golden hour?”, you ask the search engine. Golden Hour is the hour of sunlight before the sun dips below the horizon. The sun is lower, which will minimize shadows, and make you appear more smooth. The golden light flooding in creates colors you normally won’t see during midday sunlight, and brings a new warmth, and coziness. Golden hour has less lighting variables to understand, and manipulate, and less moving parts make for a happy photographer. I personally think golden hour makes every photo look like it was pulled straight from a Nicholas Sparks film, and who doesn’t want to feel like the main character?
Introducing *drum roll*...Beth and Jonny. I met Beth because she asked me to do her high school senior portraits back in 2018, and I met Jonny through mutual friends and his family. These two have one of the best love stories; It has many twists and turns, some set backs and some moments of confusion, but here they are, engaged and knowing they will be by each other’s side for the rest of their lives. As you scroll through the photos you can just see excitement, and deeply rooted love for each other. When we first started the session, the sun was hiding behind some clouds, but as the evening went on, it decided to make an appearance. If you ever forget what golden hour looks like, scroll to the middle of the photoshoot. I am excited to both celebrate, and capture their wedding this coming summer! They are a true testimony of trusting the best is yet to come.
