As a photographer who lives for capturing life's magic moments, I'm thrilled to share with you my Top 10 Favourite Images for Summer that set my heart on fire. These images encapsulate the essence of warmth, love, and pure joy that define the season of sun-kissed days and laughter-filled nights.
1 Golden Hour
Timing is everything when it comes to Golden Hour. As the sun dips towards the horizon, it casts a soft, warm glow that adds a touch of romance and dreaminess to your photos. The photoshoot must be scheduled during this magical hour, ensuring that every shot is kissed by the golden light.
Golden hour in summer time can range from 9pm in June and July, 8pm August.
When choosing locations, think of fields with rolling landscapes without any tree, or the beach and coastal areas allowing plenty of are to capture the sun dipping.
2 Beach and Coastal
Think ocean blues, sandy neutrals, and bohemian vibes for a mood board that screams relaxed elegance.
Envision yourself dancing amidst the waves with your family, basking in the soft glow of the setting sun with your partner, or simply embracing the serenity of the vast ocean stretching before you for a self love photoshoot.
3 Fields
Fields offer a sense of freedom and timeless beauty that makes them the perfect backdrop for your photoshoot.
Choose attire that flows with the gentle breeze and complements the natural surroundings. Soft, flowing fabrics, pastel hues, and earthy tones will harmonise with the field's rustic charm. Go bold with daring colours to pop amongst the green fields.
