One of our most popular times to schedule a couple's portrait session is at sunset. There is no denying that there is something very romantic about two people in love getting their picture taken against a beautiful Hawaiian sunset.
Recently, we had a sunset session at Kawailoa Beach on the North Shore with two Alaska love birds - Cassie and Keith.
I thought their session would be perfect to explain how a sunset session with Hawaiianpix typically works.
When you call us and request a sunset session, Micole keeps two things in mind - location and time. Some locations on the island (ie. the east side of Oahu) do not work for that "sunset glow and reflection" that most couples desire in their photographs. Lately, our most popular locations for couple sunset portraits has been Kawailoa Beach on the North Shore and Ala Moana Beach Park on Hawaii's south shore.
Timing is crucial. Thankfully, in our booking system we have a sunset set calendar. Micole will look at the day requested, and she will schedule your session to start one hour before the recorded sunset time.
We do this so you get regular sunlight in the beginning of your session......
About half way into your session, you start to get a golden glow in your photos from the setting sun...
Finally, the setting sun's "glow" turns into a full on sunset. Typically by this time the couple is feeling a little bit more comfortable in front of the camera, and you can really see the passion between them!
If you are interested in scheduling a romantic session against a beautiful Hawaiian sunset, call Micole at 808-387-0869 (Tuesday-Friday, 9am - 1pm)
