The Golden Hour

For the following shoot, I went on an adventure! Okay, maybe not a bona fide adventure, per se. However it was to a place I'd never been to, never even knew was so near to my own home. Saline County Arkansas really has some hidden treasures, I tell ya. Allison (the pretty young lady you see pictured below) drove her family and I out into the country, off of a main highway, and a good ways down some gravel roads to get to the setting of these photographs. The main draw was an old, steel bridge over the Saline River. I just love old bridges! They're some of my most favorite of all places to shoot. Anyhow, this bridge was covered in graffiti (another thing I adore!), there was no one nearby, and the lighting was absolutely, splendidly GORGEOUS. We really lucked out with the most perfect golden hour light to shoot with. And, as you can see, it made for some great shots!

I plan to return with future clients. Really, it was just too beautiful of a setting not to. I just hope I can remember how to get there. :-/

Thanks, Allison, for allowing me to take your lovely family's pictures and for showing me such a cool place. :)
