This meetup is designed for photographers who want to deepen their understanding of working with natural light. We'll begin with a relaxed instructional session focused on the technical side of shooting during golden hour - how to read the light, adjust settings accordingly, and develop a mindset that supports both creativity and patience.
At 5pm, we'll head out on a short hike that blends light movement with intentional image-making. Along the way, we'll explore angles, composition, and exposure in natural settings. As the sun begins to drop, we'll position ourselves to capture the rich tones and shifting shadows that only golden hour can offer.
If you're arriving late, feel free to meet us at the scenic overlook where the final part of the shoot takes place. We'll regroup and head back together as the light fades.
This session is ideal for photographers looking to practice hands-on skills in changing conditions, while enjoying a shared creative atmosphere.
