I tend to shoot during a precise time of day. That time being known by Photographers as "The Golden Hour." It’s that time of day when the light from the sun is most perfect. Giving that beautiful shine, glimmer, perfect skin tones and warmth to everything it touches. It happens approximately 60-90 minutes before the sun completely sets.To determine the golden hour visit www.golden-hour.com
PRICING Current price list and packages will be provided upon request. Prices are subject to change without notice. Due to photography nature all sales are final.
