This was a fun engagement session in a fun place at not so fun hour. Just kidding, of course it was a fun hour – 6:40am on a Sunday morning. What else would you rather be doing this early?
It all started when Monique’s, Yader’s and my schedules just couldn’t quite line up for a beach sunset shoot. We had to shoot on a Sunday but Yader would have to leave the town way before the sun set. Photographer’s secret: here in Florida, we try to avoid shooting outdoors between 10am and 6pm at all costs, especially on a summer day. Brutal heat, bright sun and harsh light aren’t really our friends. So we decided, if we cannot do sunset, why not try sunrise? Cool breeze, soft and almost magic light, empty beach – absolutely gorgeous setup for a beautiful romantic photo shoot. See for yourself:

Jason Collin Photography - I like the umbrella and the over his shoulder looking at her face shot. I can understand about the sacrifice to wake up early for the sunrise, but it is ALWAYS worth it!
Would you consider sharing the camera/lens/strobe settings for each shot for the EXIF data geeks like myself to read?
