Golden Hour Photography

Golden Hour Photography

Travel & Landscape Images from the Golden Hours

I love taking photos during the golden hours. The golden hours are the most active time for all types of photographers, especially travel and landscape photographers; especially during sunset. I love to take photos during both sunrise and sunset, as each can have different merits depending on the location. Some locations favour a particular time of day based on the direction light comes from.

I prefer to capture sunrise where possible because it is often less shot by photographers, with many choosing not to venture out so early in preparation! Lots of photographers don’t bother with the blue hour either. I think many have no idea of quite how much they are missing. If there is one thing that I could encourage photographers to do, it would be to get out for sunrise as well as the sunset.
