Golden hour will give you beautiful light but Blue Hour will give you a deep dramatic sky and the vibrant city lights. Blue hour photography is a magical time to capture stunning portraits. In this Laws of Light tutorial Jay P demonstrates the best timing to capture blue hour portraits, camera settings, which lens to use and how to incorporate strobes to improve your portrait lighting. The lighting is beautiful and has a blue hue to it compared to the golden hue during golden hour photography.
