Capturing Golden Hour: A Senior Session at the Chapel of Palacios
My recent trip to Texas brought me to the beautiful Chapel of Palacios in Westlake, where I had the privilege of photographing two amazing senior girls. With the golden hour light casting a warm glow over the landscape, it was the perfect setting for a memorable session.
The Venue: Chapel of Palacios
The Chapel of Palacios is a hidden gem, surrounded by lush greenery and timeless architecture. Its elegant stone walls and charming arched windows provided a stunning backdrop for our shoot. Every corner offered a picturesque view, making it easy to find the perfect spots to capture the girls' vibrant personalities.
Golden Hour Magic
Golden hour truly lived up to its name that evening. The soft, diffused light highlighted every detail and added a dreamy atmosphere to the photos. It was one of those Texas nights where the sky seemed to glow just for us, with hues of orange and pink creating an ethereal ambiance.
The Seniors: Confidence and Joy
The two seniors I photographed brought so much energy and joy to the session. From candid laughter to serene, thoughtful poses, they were naturals in front of the camera. Their bond was evident, adding a layer of authenticity to each image. Capturing their milestone moments in such a beautiful setting felt incredibly special.
Final Thoughts
Sessions like these remind me why I love photography. The combination of a breathtaking location, golden light, and genuine connection made for a series of images that I’m truly proud of. I can’t wait to share more from this unforgettable evening at the Chapel of Palacios.
