Last week, I created a post that “translated” a few of the things that photographers say that non-photographers don’t know what they mean (though we say it like you should ;)).  One of the topics that I covered was “Golden Hour” – the time that happens approximately an hour before the sun sets!  We call it golden hour because it casts a beautiful, warm light and is enough to make your photos just dreamy.  So today, instead of just describing it to you, I figured I would show you a few of my favorite bride and groom portraits at “golden hour!”  I hope y’all enjoy!

PS. What do you think? Is it worth it to grab a few portraits at golden hour? I’d love to hear from you below!

Wife, mama, wielder of light & joy, and capturer of moments.  I thrive off of conversation and genuine connection.  In between wrangling our kiddos, and hanging my husband, you'll find me dreaming up my next idea or creative endeavour.  It's these things that culminate to give my imagery a warmth and joy to them - the greatest compliment I could receive.

I was pretty nervous about being photographed and Lauren made everything fun and flexible. Honestly, I can't imagine the day without her and her team. They were wonderful and hearing from Lauren was always a genuine delight.
