Description

How many times have you heard that in order to get the best photos, you should try to shoot in the Golden Hour, in other words, the hour right before sunset or just after sunrise? Probably a lot!  However, many times, we simply cannot shoot at that time of day.  Maybe we’re taking our kids to the beach or the park later in the day, or we’re photographing a wedding that is happening in the afternoon, or we’re on holiday and sightseeing during the day, or maybe you’re in business and your clients can’t make the golden hour.  The good news is, there is a way to photograph people that allows you to get nice, soft, even light on your subject, even at midday, and is easy enough to use as a beginner!  In this episode, I’ll give you a couple of tricks to try for shooting in full sun that will help you get better “people” photos, even in the height of summer. Tune into this episode to discover:  Why shooting in full sun is generally considered “bad” for traditional portraits / people photos  How utilizing shade can help you get softer, more even light  Where you can find open or covered shade  What to do when there is no shade available  Some other ways to play with photography in full sun!    RESOURCES & LINKS ?
