Are you planning to step away from your reception for a little "just married" time? If so, allowing your videographer to capture moments during golden hour is something you will not regret. The perfect golden lighting allows us to really take in the scenery and glow of your venue. If you want to join your cocktail hour or are stressed about getting all the moments captured earlier, this is a perfect option for you.
Not only does it relieve stress from everyone involved, but it also keeps the harsh sunlight away. Planning a wedding day timeline around the harsh sun can be challenging. Often, we end up shooting wedding videos with harsh light or in the only shady spot at the venue, which doesn't allow for much creativity and authenticity from your videographer or photographer. Golden hour is when those effortless, unscripted moments really happen. Frolicking in the fields, slow dancing under the twilight, laughing and authentically being you, soaking in the entire moment. These moments show through in your video and make you feel like you just watched a Nicholas Sparks book come to life. Now, who would say no to that?
The science behind why golden hour is perfect lighting lies in the sun's position in the sky. During golden hour, which occurs just after sunrise or before sunset, the sun is lower on the horizon. This means that sunlight has to travel further through the Earth's atmosphere before reaching our camera's lens. This added distance softens and diffuses the light, creating those stunning warm hues. The Earth's atmosphere acts almost like a giant lens filter, blocking most of the harsher blue tones and letting only those beautiful golden hues pass through
Additionally, since the sun is so low on the horizon, the light is directional, creating soft, long shadows that stretch across the landscape. This creates an interesting play of light and dark in wedding videos, adding a layer of depth and dimension to your video that isn't possible at any other time of day
