Light and timing for the photos
Outdoors
On an estate with a garden, an outdoor ceremony looks best in the early afternoon with clouds, or when the sun is already low. Midday sun casts harsh shadows on faces.
The marquee
Under a white marquee the light softens and is very flattering. At night the garlands and candles create the atmosphere of the party.
The portraits
Meadows, trees and paths give a clean background for couple portraits. Twenty minutes before sunset is enough.
Sunset in central Asturias
- Aprilaround 9.10 pm
- Junearound 10.05 pm
- Septemberaround 8.45 pm
- Decemberaround 5.55 pm
Official and approximate time. Further east it comes a few minutes earlier. I take the couple portraits about twenty minutes before sunset.
