This week in photos comprises portraits of some of my close friends. We made a trip out to Saint Anthony, Idaho and got some good lighting at golden and blue hour.
This shot was taken near the end of golden hour. I captured it with a large aperture (7.1) and attempted to create a clamshell lighting effect by using a speedlite and reflector on its gold side.
This was shot with the same reflector (gold) to hit on the model’s face. I also wanted to get the contrast of golden hour going in to blue hour creeping into the far left of the photo.

Kayla, the lighting in these photos are so nice! I love how you were able to caputre the sunset while still keeping your subjects well-lit. Great job!
Check out Ben’s Portraits, he played with lighting too!

Great shots! Love that you weren’t too scared to shoot after sunset :D. Your flash looks great and I love that it’s soft and not super harsh on her. Great location too!

Great portraits! That location of this photo shoot is fun and unique. The lighting you captured is great and shows the faces of the people. I really like the last picture you posted with the two models back facing the camera. Here is another persons photography page that also executes their portraits with the location they chose: https://benjamintaylorphotoblog.wordpress.com/blog/
