The beauty of golden hour on your family photo session.

There's something magical about the beach that brings families closer together. The sound of waves crashing against the shore, the feel of sand between your toes, and the warmth of the sun kissing your skin all create the perfect scenery for true connection and joy shown in your family photographs.

As a photographer, I strive to capture not just smiles and poses, but the laughter, the love, and the bonds that make each family unique. The beach is one of the perfect places for a family session with your children - they will have plenty of space to run around and show their true personality. If they love to feel the sand under their feet and run away from the waves

- they will be in heaven.

But what is golden hour? Golden hour is the period of daytime shortly after sunrise or before sunset, during which the sun is really low on the horizon and softer than when the sun is higher in the sky, creating that signature warm, magical glow.

Why golden hour is the best time for your family photos?

Everyone loves family photos at the golden hour, but not everyone understands why taking photos at this time of day is so important.  The golden hour feels really late for your family and you’re wondering how you could possibly swing it with your little ones whose bedtime is 7 pm? My little secret - it always works out, really! All my family sessions are fun and relaxed. Getting that amazing light is worth adjusting your routine for just one day, and since you are already investing in a professional family photography session, you might as well go all the way.
