THE REASON WHY YOU SHOULD SHOOT DURING THE GOLDEN HOUR
The Golden Hour is a magical time for photographers, offering warm, flattering light that enhances depth, colors, and textures. It's perfect for portrait and landscape photography, creating an atmospheric, tranquil mood while reducing the need for artificial lighting. With its longer shadows and vibrant tones, this window of opportunity provides more creative flexibility and easier exposure control. To make the most of this time, apps can help predict the best moments for shooting, and post-production tips like adjusting shadows, white balance, and HSL can further elevate your photos.
