The days are long, the light is golden, and opportunities for stunning portraits are everywhere. Here at 'Stella Lifestyle Photography' I'm embracing the vibrant energy of summer and can't wait to help you capture your most cherished moments.
This month, I'm focusing on making the most of natural light, celebrating special occasions, and exploring creative ways to tell your story through beautiful imagery.
June Spotlight: Embracing the Golden Hour & Beyond
June offers some of the most beautiful light for outdoor portraits. The "golden hour" – that magical time just after sunrise and before sunset – bathes everything in a soft, warm glow, perfect for flattering skin tones and creating a dreamy atmosphere.
Tips for Your June Photoshoot:
Chase the Light: I'll be scheduling more photoshoots during the golden hour to harness that incredible natural light. Think about lush green spaces, open fields, or even urban backdrops as the sun dips low.
Open Shade is Your Friend: When the sun is higher, I'll look for open shade (like under a large tree or on the side of a building) to provide soft, even illumination and avoid harsh shadows or squinting.
Embrace the Outdoors: From family picnics to playful pet portraits, June is ideal for capturing authentic, candid moments in natural settings. Let's find a location that tells your story!
Celebrating June's Special Moments
June is a month packed with opportunities for meaningful portraits. Here are a few ideas:
Father's Day on Sunday June 15th: A portrait session with Dad and his children makes an unforgettable gift. I can capture those special bonds and create heirlooms he'll treasure forever. Not forgetting the father figures who contribute so much too.
Graduation Season: Whether it's primary school, secondary school, or university, celebrate academic achievements with professional portraits that mark this significant milestone.
Summer Solstice on June 21st: A perfect day to embrace nature and capture portraits that reflect growth, joy, and the abundance of summer.
National Camera Day on June 29th: A great opportunity to celebrate the visual arts and the power of photography to capture and share moments within a masterclass to understand your camera better.
I can't wait to capture timeless and meaningful portraits and a masterclass in photography this June.
