Moonrise Sand Dunes Bridals

Minnie + Haden

If you follow my work you know my favorite time of day to shoot is golden hour, during the sunset. This bridals session was meant to be exactly that. However, it didn’t completely go as planned because the sand dunes were a tad harder to reach than we thought. But, everything turned out for the better.

As Minnie, Haden and I were driving to the sand dunes, we quickly realized we were losing sunlight. When we finally found a spot to park, climbed to the top of a huge hill, the sun was basically gone. We started taking pictures as fast as we could and noticed the bright moon rising. Plus, the pinks and purples leftover from the sunset painted a gorgeous backdrop. The couple danced in the sand as if I wasn’t there, enjoying the peaceful night we were having as I captured these tender moments.
