IN LOVE WITH GOLDEN HOUR

Why we prefer to schedule sessions around sunset

So you want to learn about golden hour, eh? It’s a pretty popular time of day for photographers to shoot. We’ll tell you what it is and why we prefer this time of day to others.

You may or may not have noticed that all of our open availability for sessions is in the evening before sunset. We do have some daytime sessions available, but we prefer to shoot in the hours leading up to sunset. This is called the ‘Golden Hour.’ During this time, the lighting is absolutely perfect.

The perks:

You get yummy light flares and beautiful soft light.
There are no soft shadows or squinty eyes from the blinding sun at high noon.
In the summer, the weather isn’t too hot, so you’re able to relax a little better knowing there isn’t sweat running down your face or making stains on your shirt.
During Golden Hour, everything is warm and pretty and gives off a magical feeling.

We can also get some sweet silhouette shots as the sun is going down on the horizon.

Reserve your Essential Summer Family Golden Hour session today!

As these sessions are seasonal we’re only accepting evening bookings between July 1st – September 1st.

We’ve Included the Following in these sessions:
* Pre-consult and customization of your portrait session (this is usually done in person but we’ve migrated to zoom meetings, FaceTime, and telephone or even email)
* Wardrobe consult (I help you take the guess work out of what to wear)
*Complimentary Hair & Make-up for one individual
* 1 hr outdoor session (location will be determined as per our consult and customization meeting)
* During the session I will be sure to prompt and pose and direct you in order to capture those flattering angles.

We look forward to seeing you and your family and can’t wait to create some amazing memories together!

FAQ FRIDAY #1

‘I have so many clothes and nothing that matches my family’s wardrobe, how are we going to look good if we have nothing that compliments each other?’

Fear not my friend! We have the answer (and no it doesn’t always involve going out and spending more money right away). Sometimes what you think may not compliment each other we see something different. That is why part of the service of hiring us as your family portrait photographer means we help style you! YES! We will take all the guess work out of styling your family portrait session right from the start. Thats right you leave it to us! We will make sure the props (if any), location, and wardrobe all come together seamlessly to create that one of a kind experience!

(Check out our favourite spring and summer colour pallets here for inspiration)

How does it work?

Its easy! During our pre-session styling consult you take us on a virtual like tour of your wardrobe via FaceTime or Zoom and we help tailor your family’s wardrobe precisely to fit your personalized portrait session.

One more thing…

Ladies, I have one more thing to pamper you with! Take the guess work out of your hair and makeup! Why? Because we’re including Hair & Makeup in all our sessions for one individual going forward! (Its the least we can do to show how much we love our clients and we personally believe we work with the best HAMU Artists in the city!)

COVID-19 Policies on HAMU
Until we get the confirmation to go ahead to proceed with this additional complimentary service we are also happy to put this value towards your print package.

Thank you for supporting our small local business!

ALP Client Guide – Spring & Summer Session Wardrobe

Dressing for a Spring & Summer Family Session

Spring

The birds are chirping, the buds are blooming, and the snow has officially melted. That means it’s time for your spring family session. Here are a few wardrobe tips to ensure the whole gang looks smashing:

Play up the fact that it’s spring. Have a necklace with a butterfly pendant? Perfect! An insect-printed tee? Yes, please.
Channel the colors of spring. While pastels are the most popular colour during Spring, other colours will work too. Seriously – look out the window for inspiration for your family’s colour palette or pin our colour client guide image below. Greens, pinks, yellows, beige, khaki, and blues all work exceptionally well.
Layer up! Spring can be both warm and cold at once, so come prepared. We love spring scarves, light cardigans, vests, etc.

Summer

It’s hot outside, but fear not. Here are some cool wardrobe tips to make sure your summer family photo session is a hit:

Wear light fabrics that let you breath, but still look polished. It’s OK to show some skin, too. Shorts are good, as are tank tops.
Really play up the summer accessory factor. I’m talking sun hats for the ladies and big sunglasses for all.
You can even bring summer-appropriate props that complement your outfits. Maybe it’s a beach ball, balloons, giant lollipop or messy ice cream cone.
Choose shoes that are comfortable and summery. Flip flops, loafers, open-toed pumps, even sweet sneakers on your kiddos.

Now that we’ve shared some of our favourite colour schemes and you’re still unsure, keep it simple! You can never go wrong with white cotton/linen blends. All we can say is #swoon
